Oh aye, back in the day we had a text allowance. My first contract allowed me 50 SMS per day, which felt like a lot until you actually started using them. But I’ve had functionally limitless - or actually limitless - SMS for probably twenty years at this point.

I’m lucky if I send five a month, and most of those were intended to be iMessages that failed for whatever reason.
