There are any number family group chats that leave my sister out of things. She's the only Android user out of about 20 people. If she's on the threads then pictures, videos, and reactions are all broken. This is 100% deliberate by Apple, but the bias against Android users is real.

From people who don't know it's an intentional limitation by Apple.

aka, mostly nontechnical people.

Genuinely asking: your family is not willing to use WhatsApp, Signal, Telegram, Teams, Discord, ..., to have your sister be included?
"Why should they have to install an extra app just because she wants to be different?"

Experiencing this sort of behavior keeps me from believing I am an understanding person.
