minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish44•1 month agoWho cares? Texting is meant to be a convenience, not something that demands my attention. That’s the beauty of texting vs a phone call - I have time to think and do other things before replying
minus-square@_sideffectlink7•1 month agoI agree to a limit. If I’m just posting stupid yt videos to someone then who cares. But if I’m talking to someone and they don’t answer for 4 days(I give 1 day or so, personally), I’m not bothering with that person again. Texting is a form of communication, just like email is. You can say it’s a “convenience” all you want, but so is the telephone then. Why don’t you just walk to the person’s house and speak to them?
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink2•1 month agoI’ll be hiding from solicitors. If you need to speak to me, break into my house and start the conversation at gunpoint.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink2•1 month agoCounter point, if someone needs to speak to me urgently why aren’t they calling/visiting?
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink2•1 month agoAgreed. I dont get why people get upset by these things (assuming its not a time-sensitive discussion, of course) https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asynchronous_communication
