Apple would get so much more money out of me charging $20 a month to use imessage on windows/android vs waiting for me to replace my iphone. I get I am the rare user but by golly I wish they would go multi platform.

Im running a mac os virtual machine with the app/server called airmessage. I get iMessage for my family group chats now though it's tied to my email.
