Is RCS an open standard? I've seen some people say it is and others it isn't and now I'm very confused. Can you please give me a definitive answer?

What's that about Jio? I use Jio and Airtel and both support RCS so... I'm confused...

[–] SameOldInternet@lemmy.world 3 points 8 months ago (2 children)

They said Google has a monopoly using their own Jio virtual carrier. They never said Jio doesn't support RCS.

I meant Jibe and yes I never said Jio or Jibe don't support RCS. Quite the contrary

[–] ElPussyKangaroo@lemdro.id 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I might need to read up on what a virtual carrier means...

Any suggestions?

[–] SameOldInternet@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I really wouldn't know. In this context I assume it means it is not deployed like traditional mobile networks are. The missing components being the hardware side like putting up towers etc.

I see... Well, thanks anyway 🫑

wait you're right I messed up, let me edit that part out. I swear it used to say that Jio runs RCS infrastructure for Google.

edit: It was JIBE

[–] ElPussyKangaroo@lemdro.id 1 points 8 months ago

JIBE! Yes! I remember this name!
