The problem is it still requires mental load to switch in and out of that conversation.

You also create inequality on the team since threads rewards the fastest to reply. This is a lot easier to manage on a Zoom call.

In my experience, sitting through a boring meeting while trying to appear engaged is way more mentally draining.

Actually, I see the opposite, that video conferencing favors the most extroverted.

All methods can create equality issues, which can be a reason for using a variety.

I’ve noticed that the way Teams “collapses” threads that often the last to reply is the only one read besides the opening post.
