Who are these people and how do they have time follow synchronous chat on deep technical products all day?

No data to back this up, but I have a feeling the industry is so bottom-heavy with juniors that we've started optimising towards their immediate need to learn. Juniors don't have a problem sitting in Slacks all day.

I have the same thought, and not just about technical chats, like who is spending so much time in Discords? Maybe the sibling commenter is right that there are a lot more junior developers now who want instant answers and to move on, rather than longer form forum discussions?
