This is the first private message I get on Lemmy, it immediately seemed suspicious to me so I tried the famous thing… and it worked!

    I do. I will. Sorry it triggers ya.

    Except, I won’t wait for an answer. In my job it just means a wall of text is incoming, so come back in like a minute.

      All that does is compel the recipient to stop what they’re doing and wait until you send the message, which, if you’re typing up a wall of text, could be minutes. This is like calling someone on the phone and, when they answer, saying “hello please hold”. Don’t do it; it’s super rude.

      Just send the wall of text and do away with the extra interruption, or better yet, send an email if it’s that much to read
