No clue, just saying you’re “allowed” to use SMS if it’s important to you. But I might have misinterpreted you!

You can turn off iMessage and you’ll be sending texts as regular SMS.

Yeah that’s true. React native do support very smooth transitions as well though. Another app that is extremely smooth - albeit not as complete as Mlem or Memmy is Beans for Lemmy. I do believe it’s written in Swift as well.

In theory swift should be smoother, but in reality React Native is good enough for it to be really smooth. It comes down to the coding itself.

It seems so weird though. The fediverse is small. Extremely small. They are taking on Twitter. A million users on mastodon doesn’t matter when Twitter has 250 million.
