How can you send a reaction via SMS when the protocol does not support this feature.

Presumably they're talking about RCS

lol but thats totally not SMS

I would think OP just means "text messaging" and doesn't actually care about the protocol used.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago

Ohh like a combined app that Signal used to be, but never the less, reactions wouldn't work with SMS based chats

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

There is a Signal FOSS that forked from Signal which has reactions.

But it's not SMS anymore, unfortunately

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

But SMS does not support any reactions other than the original basic ones.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago

Yes, but the request was explicitly for an SMS app. But yeah anything SMS is just text. It's an outdated protocol.

The forked one still does SMS.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

Can you link the fork? There's several and I wasn't aware that one did SMS still!
