There was a huge hint in there
(GOOGLE). I actually use both. My work phone is an iPhone while my personal phone is a Google Pixel.

Yes, it is a generational thing. I'm 44. My younger co-workers text and IM instead of calling and email. They find it rude to call someone without a text or IM first to see if they are free. Just walking over to their desk .... Received the same as a salesman showing up on their front porch. Most haven't even set up a voicemail message because why would anyone leave a voicemail instead of just sending an IM or quick text?
I tend to side with the kids and prefer texts to calls and find voicemails annoying and useless. I do have a voicemail - that says NOT to leave a message and a text is the best way to reach me.
What I can't relate to is the social awkwardness talking with someone face to face. I grew up before cell phones. If I wanted to see my friends I had to meet them in person. If I wanted to ask a girl out I had to do it face to face. Going out with friends to meet people was a thing. Today it seems younger generations want to do all of that initial contact online instead of face to face.
