I’m looking for something to share images and videos between small family group. We use mix of android and apple. Text messages are terrible for images and videos.

We were using telegram, now I want to see what lemmy has to offer. Thank you in advance.

    Photo/video sharing will undergo re-encoding under some circumstances, like mixed Andoir/iOS groups

      How can you even do mixed Android/iOS groups right now from iOS? I keep seeing people refer to that, but before I installed the iOS 18 Beta that added RCS, I tried and non-iMessage “group chats” were essentially just a broadcast list where the recipients just saw it as coming from me.

        I think that only happens when one of the phones doesn’t support MMS (which afaik is pretty much just ancient flip phones unless your carrier doesn’t support it for some reason). Otherwise group chats work “fine” but with terrible image/photo quality
