Dystopia = everyone must buy an iphone as solution to the problem instead of just using an app that's not restricted to iphones

I guess the difference is the attitude - “I will try to change my preferences to suit others” vs “I will try to change others to suit my preferences”
It isn't.

Two options: - everyone installs an app that can deal with multiple vendors (like 90% of the messengers) - everyone that is not having a phone of vendor x gets a new phone from vendor x and throws away the old one (or keeps both lol)

The former is almost for free and the latter costs hundreds of dollars .

It's so much worse that you cannot even make out this difference
