If they'd sent a link instead of the video itself you'd have seen the whole thing though.
Which is more convenient?
And this is 2023, why shouldn't I be able to just send a video straight to another person if they're the only one seeing it?
I don't support big grey making that decision for me
You're missing my point, but it looks like you're not the only one. Your friend should have sent it differently.
I mean you just missed your chance at clarifying said point in the very comment I'm about to respond to.

The funny thing is MMS is effectively a link.
When you send an MMS, it's uploaded to a server via http where a link is generated. Then the link is sent to the other phone, where the MMS service retrieves the file via that link. We just don't see it happening.
Yes, but iPhone people are typically pretty tough to convince. The "it just works" branding is so strong that they think any flaw must be in the non-iPhone user.
