    I wouldn’t say we’re afraid. I don’t particularly like speaking on the phone though, but it’s alright, I even worked call center for a while so it doesn’t bother me much these days.

    Anyways, essentially texting is just more efficient. I can’t speak for everyone else, but for instance at work, I hate it when I have a question or need assistance on a specific topic, ask on my team chat and have a couple of people saying “quick call?”.

    If it’s something really complex, fine… that’s fair. Other than that? It’s just so inefficient. I can be working on something else and just reply during my off time between tasks, same with whoever I ask help from. Also, most of the time I’m listening to music, or I have my TV with ambience sound on the background. So then I have to turn everything off just so I can go for a 5minute call for something that could be done over chat on the same amount of time.

    Sorry this comment turned out way longer than I thought it would.







  • You guys are making it political.

    Remove the hexbear instance and you’ll see that most of the comments agree on what is and isn’t politics, even thought their feelings towards X and Y political party differ. It’s seems it’s just you guys creating a shit storm of nonsense and everybody else kinda getting along despite their differences.





  • I get what you mean, even thought I don’t entirely agree.

    If you go to extremes, everything can be political. That’s not the reality more often than not. Also, I don’t mind politics, and I enjoy different opinions. However, I don’t think memes where the point is clearly to annoy or trigger any political party or political movement belong here though.

    In sum, I respect and appreciate any and all political opinions, on political centric communities. I just want to look at stupid memes and unwind, I don’t want to see the the usual left/right/capitalist/socialist/communist arguments.
