Opening section[edit]

@InfiniteNexus: The opening section when you edited read as " Messages (formerly known as Android Messages) is an text messaging software application developed by Google for its Android and Wear OS mobile operating systems, while it's also available via the Web." The typo was the part of the sentence that read "is an text messaging..." it should have read as "is a text messaging..." instead. But I see that you've corrected it anyway. I disagree with with your sentiment of Google's priority of the Messages app being instant messaging being disregarded in the opening, but I don't want to get into an edit war with you.

"You disagree" ... okay, why do you disagree? Describing the platform as an "instant messaging" platform implies that it is purely instant messaging, which is not the case. This is like calling WhatsApp a "messaging" app even though messaging is only one of its features. InfiniteNexus (talk) 06:40, 4 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

At first I disagreed, but now I don't really think it's a big deal. Making the edit without correcting the typo was the biggest issue, but that's been corrected. --Osh33m (talk) 02:06, 5 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
