Is there a way they can track through this? It’s not provided by Google but from a third party browser extension

Maybe, I’m not sure exactly how they implemented it but I think for Google Messages it just reads the text and tries to stick the emote from it on the text that it’s quoting, so if there’s ever a mismatch on the quote for some reason or if older iOS versions word it differently that might be what’s causing that

Mainly, when you’re messaging an iPhone user you get the benefits that it provides: less compressed images and videos, read receipts, more reliable messaging (you won’t see message “delivered” unless it actually reaches the person you’re messaging), encryption, etc.

When messaging someone without using iMessage such as when texting an Android user from iPhone or vice verca, it’s going directly over the data carrier networks, which heavily compresses images and videos, so if an Android user sends an iPhone user a video file directly, it ends up very blurry if it’s longer than 30 seconds-a minute or so, images are okay most of the time if they aren’t huge or detailed. You also don’t get read receipts on either end. The text also aren’t encrypted so the data provider and anyone who spoofs a cell tower can read all messages

iPhone to iPhone/iPad/Mac works great as you said though, but I actively use something else like Signal, Discord, or Telegram when messaging my friends who don’t have one because it’s a lesser experience on both ends.

The issue isn’t that iMessage is bad, it’s really good imo, it’s just that iMessage makes messaging people who don’t have iMessage worse by comparison, if it were opened up then everyone could text everyone without anyone missing out.

I’m not going to make any claims about OP, but I’d recommend to take a look through OP’s comment history before deciding whether to enter a long-form discussion.
