Some people absolutely do not expect a 24 hour response and will reply all in 30 minutes if you do not acknowledge it. Some of us work support development work that demands you cut all focus on your problem and start to write an email response and break away from what you were already working on.

That sucks... for me, I tend to check email about twice a day... usually at the start of the day, and towards the end of the day. During the day, slack/teams is the way to go.

Aside: I REALLY hate the direction teams has taken more and more... like separating the various chat channels and activity notifications for calendar invites that are months away.

Wish I had meeting invites months away, all mine are “get in here virtually” despite going into the office to “work together in person” and it not changing a darn thing about how I work lol we call each other to work things out whether remote or in person. Nobody wants to walk over to an office and burn 5 to 15 minutes of small talk.

Except for the people who do want to walk over to an office for 5 to 15 minutes of small talk.

I actually miss that the most about being in office. My vision is no longer in a good enough position that I feel safe to drive, though given other people driving, I'm not so sure.

I miss the ad-hoc meetings and lunch with co-workers.
