Part of what the author ignores here, is the always-on expectation of you by other users. If they send you a WhatsApp message, and you don't reply within minutes, or your 'last seen' timestamp is hours/days ago... they'll panic, convinced that you've falling down a ravine or something.
For those thinking of trying this experiment, I would recommend briefing your whole social circle beforehand.
- BeFlatXIII 5y agoI've unintentionally run this experiment my entire adult life. I'm an unreliable responder and people who message me already know that. Still, I've filtered out (intentionally or otherwise) people who expect prompt responses to low-criticality chats.
