What's your policy on the earliest you can send texts? Specifically if you don't know whether the person's phone is in Do Not Disturb. Or do we assume everyone uses that setting on their devices?

@lexfri I’m pretty sure you will just see ‘notifications silenced’ if you text anyone at any time if day, inopportune, desired or not.

I think of texting as an asynchronous medium that can certainly become real time interactive frequently. But I don’t assume or demand or expect a
real time answer in most cases.

Sometimes one’s hands are busy working or driving, and I would prefer a voice conversation. But many are loathe to ever do that these days, whether eavesdroppers surround or not.
