    I may be switching to a Windows PC, any advice?

    My iMessage app is taking up like 40GBs on my Max, and I'd like to clean that up a bit. Unlike WhatsApp, iMessage doesn't save everything you receive into the camera roll. Is there an easy way to just export all pics and videos? If not, what's the best option?
