email becomes chat
email is often turned into Group chat by pressure of the culture to have notifications on and respond immediately, effectively turning it into Synchronous Communication rather than Asynchronous Communication. It then lies in the same category as Async-ish communication, where it's both stressful AND requires you to read everything. Often times because there's no emoji reactions or other read indicators which also leads people to try and look busy, rather than focusing on effectiveness.
