    I already hate people who send voice messages in a world where dictation software exists. I hate whoever even thought of joking about this even more.

      The dictation software we have is pretty shitty though. It almost always needs proof-read, or re-dictated several times to get it right. At that point you may as well just send an audio clip.

      Until the day that dictation software gets it 100% correct, it's not going to be worth my time.

      For now, the human on the other end will always have an easier time understand an audio clip than a machine, because human minds are more capable of using context and getting past regional accents.

        Most of the times I get a voice message it could be written in two sentences, but they still decide to make it a two minute voice message. Just a lot of useless stuff added for free

      maybe this sucks of me but when people do this i just don't bother listening. sorry you couldn't be assed to send a fifteen second text, i def can't be fucked to listen to a five minute ramble that's mostly filler

      Voice messages are good for those who speak a language which doesn't get focused on by transcription services or are too old to read tiny text
