As a reminder to myself and as a personal case study in how this experience is now broken for users.

IMPORTANT UPDATE: The Texts or Beeper app basically fixed this problem! I use Beeper because it has a mobile app and macOSx support. https://www.beeper.com/

Social

1. iMessage
2. Facebook Messenger
3. Instagram Messenger
4. WeChat
5. WhatsApp
6. Discord
7. Signal
8. GroupMe
9. Twitter

Work

1. LinkedIn - although mostly I use this as a central depository for all the recruiter messages I end up ignoring.
2. Slack (for annoying pings that erase your carefully structured, current train-of-thought)
3. Email (the original high-latency chat app). If you want a good email client recommendation, I recommend Shortwave.
4. Google Voice - useful for having temporary phone numbers for calls/messages. Recycle occasionally and avoid the buildup of annoying spam!

Video
