To me it feels texting takes longer. Call someone up and it's done in less than a minute. Why write some long ass message?

Most folks don't even bother writing back... Message seen? Best forget about it.

Edit: typo

For me, it's about evidence and accountability.

This so much. Text/email/slack leaves a permanent, searchable record. Synchronous communication is complete garbage and there are very few scenarios where it should be tolerated, much less encouraged.

Honestly, I'm at the point where if someone insists on calling, I assume they are up to something and are intentionally trying to not go "on the record"
