Do you guys still use phone numbers? My phone is only for work related matters. Or things that need attention right now like my wife telling me to turn off thr stove.

Most of the time when I get a call, I don't pick it up unless I know who it is. It's a bit like my hotmail email, mostly spam or formal things.

I'm not American, so it may be a little different here.

Am American. What do you use to chat with relatives? That’s probably my most significant use of voice calling.
Telegram, WhatsApp, Messenger.

I don't think we have voice conversations anymore. If we're discussing a future project for work, it's almost entirely in text up to 3 AM. A chat with my wife or daughter is all text message and stickers.

Signal.
