I check my texts. I check my email. I check my DM. When I want to.

YOU choose when the call happens.

    And ignoring the call or turn DND on isn't an option? No judgement, just curious.

    That would be the mitigation to the problem, yes. But I'm describing why it's a problem in the first place.

    You can't say "calls aren't that bad because you can do everything possibly to avoid them.". I'm avoiding them because they're that bad.

    Well yeah, because I need to talk to you

    People have been doing this without problems for decades, why is it a problem now if it wasn't 10-20 years ago?

    When better options arise, people can start to dislike the old options.

    Why do I not like washing dishes by hand? It wasn't a problem 30 years ago. For example.

    Now you'll say it WAS a problem and they invented dishwashers to fix it. And I'll say they invented texting to fix phone calls.
