I'm looking for something to share images and videos between small family group. We use mix of android and apple. Text messages are terrible for images and videos.

We were using telegram, now I want to see what lemmy has to offer. Thank you in advance.

I think that only happens when one of the phones doesn't support MMS (which afaik is pretty much just ancient flip phones unless your carrier doesn't support it for some reason). Otherwise group chats work "fine" but with terrible image/photo quality

They all should, they're relatively recent phones and at least one of them I've sent MMS images to and the other one is on the same carrier as me.

Maybe group chats is just something carriers in Germany don't support. Nobody in their right mind here sends MMS anyway, it still costs 36 cents or so to send one, for me at least. Pretty much a straight up scam.
