    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.

      I kinda need to do this with my dad, otherwise he doesn’t notice texts. For example he texts me “Buy that spread for €0.79”. “Hazelnut or cocoa?” which if I don’t follow with ~5 question marks, he won’t even notice.

      I recently started dating again and noticed a lot of people do this now it’s very annoying.

        I’ve got one person doing that in my work group chat. I’ve got Buzzkill installed for the sole purpose of muting the chat for five minutes whenever they send a message in order to avoid my watch constantly vibrating for two minutes.

          TIL about Buzzlill. Holy shit. I could probably do the same thing with Tasker but I’ll happily pay $4 so I don’t have to.

            Buzzkill is the first thing I installed on my OnePlus 11. I don’t remember exactly, but I couldn’t get some notifications to come through as vibrate only, and the ones that did vibrated for too long. Buzzkill let’s me not only create custom vibrate notifications but also set the strength and duration. Game changer for sure

            it can also be plugged into Tasker :) you can set conditions to run Tasker profiles, for example. just saying.

      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.

        What’s the disadvantage?

        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)

          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.

        My friends in a group chat sometimes have something to ask me so they be like: ‘Hey, Critical_Insight?’ - to which I two hours later reply: ‘Yeah?’ and then maybe an hour later I get the actual question and an hour from that I reply to it. If they instead would’ve just asked the question in the first message, I then would have answered to in in my first reply, and then be done with it. Maybe it’s just me, but I see that as waste of everyones time.
