.@dhh I think they can't figure it out. I've sent them detailed debug log files. there's an open bug report. not fixed, but def acknowledged
Apple is screwing with device portability via iMessage and that just isn't cool. I want to chose iOS from free will, not coercion.

@dhh Related: putting your iPhone into debug mode and viewing the logs is actually quite cool. you need apple engineers to enable it.

@dhh I really wish Apple would develop iMessages for Android and Windows. Doesn’t 100% solve this issue but it really helps. -

@8bitDesigner but does XMPP use the awesome end-to-end encryption that Apple does with iMessages? -
@harpaa01 XMPP secures the connection via TLS, and supports OTR for encrypted messages on top of that.

@arpit oh, that’s shitty. I still think calling it “coercion” is ridiculous. Not fond of how DHH words things often… :P

@dhh Forcing anyone into a decision is never a good idea. One of the things I love about ruby/rails is that they work on any modern OS. -
@dhh 15 years ago I wanted an apple; I saw the commercials that dumped on Windows which changed my mind. They stopped; now i own a macbook. -
@dhh coercion? They're effing up a bunch on the iMessage front, but none of it is in an attempt to lock users in. -
@dhh It’s a nightmare. I’ve been on Android for a month and many of my text messages from iOS devices are still being lost -
@dhh If done just before you get rid of your iPhone, it's simple - Just disable iMessage in settings. If you forget that, it's difficult. -
@dhh by all accounts it's not on purpose and they can't figure it out but are trying -
@dhh wonder if this is more recent. My brother switch to android ~2 years ago. Had to fiddle with the settings to get it to forget imessage -
@dhh can Apple guarantee end-to-end encryption if iMessage was made for Android? -
@dhh Do you think it was intentional? I think THEY just didn't think it through... -
@dhh I wonder if the whole open, Android is only hitting you now.
