Why do people send voice notes rather than text messages? What makes people think someone wants to spend six minutes listening to them rambling just because they couldn't be bothered to type?
>>108708494It's more efficient for the sender, less efficient for the receiver. Most people in Britain are unemployed, they have all the time in the world to tap tap a text message.
>>108708494>Why do people send voice notes rather than text messagesIlliteracy, laziness, low IQ.
>>108708494I've only ever seen women do this
>>108708494In Latin America youre seen as weird if you don’t send voice notes at least some of the time
Because they couldn't be bothered to type. You answered your own question.In addition to that I find it's harder to misinterpret voice with inflection rather than tone-less text.I wouldn't want to communicate with someone like OP regardless though.
The only people here in the US who send voice notes are illiterate immigrants using whatsapp.
>>108708494>couldn't be bothered to typeBitches love smiley faces.
>>108708494Same reason these people love speakerphone.
>>108708494>Why do people send voice notes rather than text messages?Autism
>>108708494i can’t think of a single time i’ve received a voice message that wasn’t on an answering machine
How the definition of nigger technology evolved over time.
>>108708570This, it's very woman coded.
Thirdies are illiterate
>>108709580Americans are thirdies now?
typing long text messages requires a degree patience of smartphone literacy that most people don't have, even if they do do it, normies will read the first line and ignore everything else, so they would rather send what is effectively a voicemail
>>108709800>turn to 2x speed>wait for keywords>if using Snapchat or iMessage, just read the transcriptits that easy>>108709609always have been
>>108708570True, only women send voice notes.My mom sometimes sends me 1 second voice notes, which literally consist of a two-word question.I hate when she does this.
only the biggest oversocialized normgroids do this that think talking to their phone is normal
How mentally stunted do you have to be to complain about people using their phones as communication devices?
>>108708587Why though
>>108710014What do you think a phone is for??
Why would anyone in their right mind spent a minute trying to type some shit they could have said in five seconds.
>>108708494chinks do that because their written language is retarded
>>108710252It’s more social, highly social cultures feel like texts are too impersonal and detached and want to feel like they’re talking face to face You think being autistic is bad in a western country you haven’t tried being autistic in a Latin American or arab country
>>108708494Only turd worlders do this. Whites intuitively understand that parsing text is far more efficient way of communicating and analyzing information.
>>108708518>less efficient for the receiverYou can speed up audio, you can't speed up text. Everyone prefers audiobooks and podcasts to written texts.
>>108711011I don’t know about China but Korea and Japan prefer texts by far. See my previous post >>108711016 because societal autism and preference for texts over voice is directly correlated. For example Finland, Estonia aren’t on this graph >>108710252 but I can easily predict they are 70%+ in favor of texts. Meanwhile I can predict Turkey is 50/50 or even has a slight preference for voice notes
>>108708494Because tts filters people who can't speak clearly.
>>108711028>Everyone prefers audiobooks and podcasts to written texts.do goyim really
>>108708494I wish my mom had sent me more voice notes now that she's gone but for pretty much every other situation I'd much rather just have the text. It's the same number of taps to just have the phone convert your voice to text and it should be just as easy to convert a voice note to text.
>>108708494i see people on the bus/train do this all the time, its a pain to type messages when you are on a moving vehicle
voice notes are protected by the same laws that prevent wiretapping phone calls. texts are not
>>108711137what state? in florida it applies to any communication whether it's oral, electronic, or wire.
Async audio communication is better than texting. Texting is a regression, it's inefficient, and only tolerated by hyperverbal, antisocial populations
>>108708518>It's more efficient for the senderyou know you can dictate to your phone right
>>108708587>>108710252Yeah, most people I contact through WhatsApp in Hueland send voice messages for some reason.
>>108711817>wrote the man in text form
>>108708494>voicemail
>>108711877That's right!
>>108708494The only reason anyone uses any tech: they push it in front of users to force us to use it. Grandpa just wants to convey a message and the phone says, "do it this way!" so he does.
>>108708494My gf does that when she's driving but she has a cute voice so i don't mind.
>>108708494OP is 100% a busriding yuropoor. Being in the USA and driving with Android Auto or Carplay, speech to text still sucks even with the latest Gemini, so voice notes would actually be useful except Google decided to not expose it in Android Auto. If you text while you drive, you deserve to have your thumbs lopped off and your eyes gouged out.
I've got no one to text or send voice notes so.
>>108711982Sending voice messages while you drive is ALSO a major distraction and cannot be allowed.
>>108708494It's for 3rd worlders and women. Moreso 3rd worlders.
>>108708494>why would people who have jobs and drive and have shit to do prefer to send a voice message rather than type it?yet another confirmation that this board is full of students and NEETs
>>108710969habiton the other hand, voice recognition is pretty good and I’m starting to get the muscle memory to press the microphone button if I don’t have any weird proper nouns in what I’m about to say
>>108708494kinda a moot point when text to speech and speech to text exist
I used to talk to a girl who would send me voice notes. I loved the sound of her voice, and I would replay them over and over sometimes. I wish I had kept them but it's probably for the best.
I had a supervisor send me a 10 minute video of them rambling over a screen recording and was upset when I asked if that was a joke. Send it via text, if it takes too long to type then consider condensing it.
>>108708494Just use AI to make a transcript (or summary) nigga
>>108708494Whenever someone sends me a voice message I just tell them that it didn't load or play correctly and ask them to write it out instead. I think expecting someone to spend minutes listening to your poorly thought out ramblings is disrespectful
>>108712781Anyone who tries that with me will regret it when I spend an hour typing an email in reply that anticipates every possible branch of the conversation and proactively and exhaustively addresses it.>they call me backI let it go to voicemail and write a second email, from scratch rather than cribbing from the first.
>>108708587Corporate shill on Facebook: "You're WEEEEIRD! You're WEEEEEEEIRD!"
>>108712963ok
>>108708494If I receive a voice message I usually just ignore it
>>108716196Why?
>>108711817yeah nothing beats getting a voicemail in the midst of public transit
>>108709609Americans don't do voice notes. Half of them are still doing SMS.
Imagine if 4chan was all voice posts.
>>1087163004chan but all posts are text-to-speech getting played at the same time when you enter a thread.
>>108716262just click the transcribe button or put your headphones on?
>>108708494I wish messenger programs would at least offer easy transcribing functions. And also use those for notifications if possible.People who send voice messages are fucking trash. Unless you're in a highly distressing situation, you have no right to waste my time like this. Just use the dictation function on your fucking device if you're too dumb to type, or wait till you have time to type. 98% of messages are pointless anyway.
>>108716330No you put it on speaker nigga, then the while bus/train knows about your positive chlamydia test.
>>108708494I want you to hear my voice of command. Text castrates authority
>>108716339yeah it makes absolutely zero sense that I can press the button to convert my voice to text, but I can't press a button to convert someone elses voice to text.
>>108716214If I ever need to recheck what was sent to me or get any detail of the message, I'd have to relisten to the whole voice message, it's extremely annoying. I think it's kinda disrespectful of people's time.
>>108716426A valid argument. Except the last point. My time is more valuable than yours.
>>108708494>quicker to make than writing on a shitty phone keyboard>if i just care about text ,the phone transcribes it in like 1 second per minute of audio>if its someone i like i get happy chemicals hearing their voiceno downsides
>>108710000>My mom sends me two word voice notes>Washed Sock?>Job Yet?>Fuck Much?
>>108716214Why not?
>>108716864What it's something extremely important?
>>108716426>If I ever need to recheck what was sent to me or get any detail of the message,THat's when you just ask them. Waste their time instead of yours. And if they don't answer, fuck it, not your problem.
>>108716933Then they should have sent a text message
>>108716970Bingo.
