European carriers are still charging for sms messages. Luckily RCS now kind of exists.
Yes and no. All plans still include SMS but they're very cheap, sadly they're not much used anymore cause everyone uses WA or other apps. Some don't even read or respond to SMS, which is maddening to me because what's the fucking difference?
SMS is pretty antiquated tech in a way and just made basically obsolete with internet-based messengers.
