I must be the only person in the world who doesn't get annoyed by Hi

I don't get particularly annoyed by it, and I'm definitely more annoyed by the people who complain about it and/or reply with just the link to that "no hello" URL.
Not with people I know tbh, but truly random people, all expecting to play pingpong is so frustrating
I had a colleague who used to start dms with just “dude” (and then wait for you to reply) It was nerve wracking.

“Dude, how ya doing” Is friendly “Dude” Means WTF did you just do.
