    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?

      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.

            Yeah same here, if they don’t say anything after “hey”, then I’m not going to put in additional effort to get more work dumped on me

        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.

            Then you’re slow. I almost always have the phone in my pocket

      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.
