weeeell… I used to run our studio on Discord at least 8 hours a day, and also giving my classes, about 10 hours a week on Discord. So yes, you can work there. And for me, it’s the same problem for leisure, open source projects, communities, etc.
And I think we have different ethics, and perhaps different responsabilities. Answering instantly as a boss, as a Dev, as a professor or as a friend, is not one of mine. Unless it’s truly an emergency where lives are in danger. But as usual I respect my friends deciding to do otherwise.
