It’s bad enough they make ‘features’ I don’t want enabled by default, but it’s even worse when the lazy/incompetent developers can’t even give me the option to change it.

I hate the “read” function more in different messaging services. And when they show when you and others are online.
Personally, I don’t care for any of that shit, but in the past I have had people letting me know that they knew I was online and they knew I had read their message and why hadn’t I replied to them yet, hmm???
That shit can fuck all the way off. I need to be in the right headspace to reply to messages. It would be a full time fucking job if I had to sit and reply to people all day when they wanted me to. I don’t expect people to reply to me immediately either. I know people have lives that take up their time. I’m not their first priority and I don’t kid myself into thinking I’m entitled to be.
Would appreciate the same respect in return.
I believe it’s changed the expectations around “instant” messaging. When I was growing up, if someone texted you, you weren’t obligated to reply immediately. With IMs, you might reply if you were near your computer.
Now, my project manager messages me on slack over lunch break and then messages me like 15mins later with “Hello???”
