Nah, that just makes you seem unreliable, even uncontactable should there be an emergency. You want to respond, but you want to do so in a way that nips this sort of thing in the bud.
Depends on the company/team culture, I guess. Where I work, email is used for things that are important/formal but not urgent, Teams is used for things that aren't especially urgent or important, and video calls are used for things that are urgent (followed up by an email if it's also important).
It's considered rude to expect an immediate response to a Teams message, on my team.
Yeah, it's definitely a culture thing. I developed this habit because I worked for a company that expected everyone to be responsive to text messages during the entirety of normal waking hours, and they abused the shit out of it, and I had enough.
