Do people still talk on their phones

[Treeglow Flicker 13,034]

Only on the landline when it comes to something important.

I do own a mobile phone, but I don't talk or text on it. I just use it to receive security verification codes. Literally the only time I use it and the only reason I have one.

Oh absolutely. Before my long distance best friend got a bf she would call me and we would talk for hours. I actually prefer to talk over writing messages. Feels more real. Which is why I tend to leave people voice messages if they're cool with it.

@Iforgotmybrain Is my witness. I've leave quite a few of these voice messages on discord lol. I'll be leaving another one as soon as I leave work over this "wonderful" comment left on my bumble profile.

Yessss for sure. I wish I could physically talk more to people I know online (unless I’m afraid we go on for a while and don’t want to say goodbye). Feels more human than just reading a message.

Yes of course. I still do quite a bit, even though I prefer texting since I'm so socially awkward talking on the phone.

I avoid talking on the phone at all costs. I don’t like regular phones and I don’t like cell phones. The only reason I have one is because the world insists on revolving around these stupid devices to the point where you can do even the most basic tasks without having an app. I rarely turn on my phone unless it’s necessary, and you’d be surprised just how unnecessary it is.

App is my most hated quarter of a word.

You and me both!
