    I still don’t understand the reluctance of having a voice call. In fact it is really ironic how you can go to a store and see people in the store shopping but the whole time having a voice call.

      Because ear me out: i can read text everywhere, i can read it faster than you can talk and i can answer in a better way and i can also do ctrl+z and i don’t stutter with text!

      Oh and i mentioned how i don’t get interrupted while writing?

      I understand moods or wanting to avoid certain calls, especially spam, but yeah I’m kind of with you how people have become allergic to a phone call. 25 years ago having the ability to make or receive a call any time was a life changing luxury.

      Because I’d just rather not and my memory regularly lets me down. Can’t Ctrl+F my brain.

      And especially fuck voice notes, I’m not turning the volume up and playing it out loud because someone couldn’t be bothered to type.

      Just give it me in text god damn it.

        A friend sends them all the time or uses voice to text. Both are a disaster. The best part is he’s an English major and brilliant at writing copy but his friendly communication is frequently unintelligible.
