Perhaps it should be more obvious to everyone if the particular form of communication you are using is meant to be synchronous or asynchronous. Talking on the phone is clearly synchronous and sending emails is clearly asynchronous. However everything else seems to have gotten confusing. People have started moving what was traditionally forum based long term asynchronous communication to Discord.

I know in reddit/hn/forum I can go back at the end of the day and read everything I missed, so it's 'obviously' asynchronous. Mentally, I don't feel the same way about slack, because it's hard to continue a conversation that happened earlier.. I guess threads could make this easier.
