You’re absolutely right although I do think there is a subtle but fundamental difference between old school phone calls (especially if done on a landline) and modern voice chats.

Now it’s a lot easier to do a voice call and also do something else since you’re probably sitting in front of your computer. And you can stay there for hours chatting about literally nothing.

Phone calls, had to be a lot more intentional. Firstly because of the cost but also because it was harder to do something else while on the phone.

And I kinda miss that.
