I don't know how people can stand large chatrooms

Fr. I have fun on discord when it's a smallish server/fewer people are online. But I've been on a couple more massive ones, and I just can't keep up with the conversation(s) happening too quickly. Maybe it just takes getting used to, but I haven't had the chance since my phone tends to crash from it lol

How large are we talking? My company of <50 is full of adults which use Slack with restraint. We have organised conversations and no one uses memes or reaction emojis.

I can stand it, does that help you understand?

I'm talking about very large ones where it's basically just a big mind dump. A lot of people talking but not really to each other.

yeah same, if at the bare minimum the chat doesn't come to a natural stop every couple of hours then I'm not going to talk in there

Define very large, we could be agreeing but I have no idea where your cut-off is

Hundreds+. I would consider 50, like your Slack group, to be small.

You think 50 people in one instant messaging chat room is small? I would consider small to be <10.

Our scales are way off
