On: EU will require Apple to open up iMessage (2022)

Well looking at Apple's more recent features for iMessage, Animoji and Memoji related features are presumably non-trivial to slap into an existing app.

Why, is that true?

They interoperate fine with older iPhones, Macs and iPads that don't have those features.

I was thinking just about those, same goes for reactions for messages on other platforms, stickers, etc.
