y-zon128 on HNThis is in English but it should really be in Turkish, Hindi, etc because there are cultures that do this 9/10 times, and cultures that do this 2/10 times. Sure it's generational…

Objections
Some people don't mind greetings or find hi annoying only sometimes
From 2 comments
I must be the only person in the world who doesn't get annoyed by Hi
Briannaj on HNI don't get particularly annoyed by it, and I'm definitely more annoyed by the people who complain about it and/or reply with just the link to that "no hello" URL.

Sending the link can come across as rude

Requests
Support multiline message mode with ctrl+enter to send
From 1 comment
Would be nice if anything that supports multiline messages let you toggle into a multiline mode where enter always puts in newlines and a combo like ctrl+enter sends the message.
