Send Group SMS From Mac is sending as individual texts

I can send group text messages from my iPhone. When I send it from my Macbook, it sends the text only to the first individual.

Is there ever going to be a fix to this multi-year-old software bug?

A Mac isn't like an iphone where you can just send MMS.

MMS is a service you pay monthly to your cellular data provider.
