      probably from all those people
      who can’t form a single sentence
      without hitting “send”
      every two words

          Mhm, I’ll absolutely do this sometimes, as a stylistic choice. I usually type and text with perfect spelling and punctuation (at least as close to perfect as my brain can get!)

          Sometimes, typing in a punctuation-free or texting in a rapid manner like that can make a message come across the way it sounds in my mind.

        What’s the disadvantage? I really only see advantages.

        So here’s an example:

        you: hey

        you: are you free right now?

        other: nah. Sorry

        other: but I shold have time around 17:00.

        you: Ok. Call me when you’re done. It’s kinda important

        other: Ok


        The first message introduces a conversation followed by a follow up. As soon as you send the first message it’s easier to send the second one too since you already introduced the conversation.

        The other person then answers with a short answer where they don’t really have to think about what they write and how they write it. You instantly get an answer.

          https://nohello.net/en/

          A: hey (my watch vibrates once)
          A: are you free right now? (my watch vibrates again)
          B: nah. Sorry (their phone plays the sound once)
          B: but I shold have time around 17:00. (their phone plays the sound again)

          as opposed to:

          A: hey, are you free right now? (one vibration)
          B: nah, sorry, but I should have time around 17:00 (one sound played)

            The amount of times I’ve had to send this to other developers is infuriating. I’ll wait 5 mins for them to send the part after “hey.” I’m not replying back without an inquiry. I’ve got work to do.

            I don’t really see a problem with that. Also it shouldn’t vibrate if you’re already in the chat. So that really isn’t a problem since you usually see that the other person is typing and usually wait for them to send the message as long as they aren’t taking too long.

              I don’t really see a problem with that.

              and I do, because it doubles the amount of notifications I receive. if 5 people ask me something that way, I end up with 10 notifications, half of them being a pointless “hey”. it’s just plain inconsiderate.

              Also it shouldn’t vibrate if you’re already in the chat

              I don’t always immediately rush to check my phone when I get notified, not to mention that when the alerts are fired in a rapid sequence like that you often just don’t have time to open the conversation before the next alert arrives.

      I can see my phone getting that if I let every app just push whatever they want. I purposefully and carefully go through and ensure I’m only getting notifications for what I need them for.

      I average 250 a day. With 3/4 of those being messaging apps.

      I feel like I’d install a bunch of shit before getting anywhere close to a tenth of that. I’d hate my phone. However, I’m far from being a teenager and their ways and methods have become somewhat mysterious.

      60% of the group get less than 300 80% get less than 500

      5000 is probably a very very small percent, and probably kids that have a shit load of followers.
