Beeper too. They got a lot of buzz a while back for a similar feature.
Still features like that would be kinda neat for all the devices that RCS don't support, like Windows, Mac, Linux, BSD, ChromeOS, HarmonyOS, Android Open Source Project, Ubuntu Touch, PostmarketOS...
It's my understanding that they need a bunch of Apple hardware to serve as an intermediary, hence the extra monthly cost for... blue bubbles. Doesn't seem like something that can be engineered without it.
