Why does this bother you?
- deeblering4 6y agoPossibly because it triggers numerous notifications for a request or question thats not complete yet. That can be quite distracting, especially if the conversation isn’t urgent.
- corty 6y agobecause every time someone hits return, the messenger goes bling. Then I'll read what was sent because I was interrupted anyways. Then I'll discover it was incomplete and I can't make sense of it. I'll go back to productive work until the next snippet of this flow of consciousness madness interrupts me. Then I'll read that message, plus the preceding ones for context. Now you interrupted me multiple times, forcing me to read partial stuff over and over again, just to have to wait for your next snippet for it all to maybe make sense. People messaging like the above cause me to mute them and just look at their messages once in a blue moon.

I realize there are still distractions re: notifications, etc. but I recommend people turn off chat sound effects to make the notifications less distracting. It bugs me when on a Zoom call, I slack something, and I hear the Slack notification sound.
