I had to check the current year twice to make sure I'm not reading this in 2010. Most people moved to messaging a decade ago, and anyone younger than 25 finds the entire idea of direct voice calls bizarre and would be annoyed by getting one from you, unless you're old or have some special circumstances. Did something suddenly change?

For various people, some of that flipped back, and they now record voice messages to send them through e.g. WhatsApp. My percieved explanation for this is that most of them can't be bothered to type a message but are still very happy to waste the recipient's time. Yes, I'm not thrilled about it. OTOH, at least these messages are still more asynchronous and less interrupting than a phone call. But the inability to skim them still bothers me to no end.
