    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.

        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.
