A few days ago

The topic of WeChat display read function has been hot searched

Although the official WeChat account quickly made a decision on this matter

There is no 'if'Response from

It has also sparked a lot of discussion among netizens

Some people directly substitute themselves into the role of 'unread but unable to recall'

Some people directly expressed disagreement with the "read" reminder

Some people believe that displaying 'read' is also a form of reply

I returned, I returned to silence

From these discussions, it can be seen that

Most people are concerned about the function of displaying 'read'

Still very resistant

The read function has actually been applied in many social apps

Most of them are working software

Although it is for the purpose of enterprise management

But it always puts pressure on people to respond immediately

Even without face-to-face socializing

There will also be a sense of urgency being closely watched by an invisible pair of eyes

If these eyes also turn

More private social apps such as WeChat

It will bring more discomfort and a sense of encroachment on people's lives

Sometimes I can't read it back, just

As netizens say, 'idea reply'

Or if you don't know how to reply, it may take some time to think

But the display of 'read'

I directly skipped these reasons and came to a conclusion

Causing unnecessary social pressure

In one sentence, it can be summarized as

Hate some borderless social ways

The development of the Internet has brought many conveniences to our lives

Make it easier for us to find each other

It greatly facilitates our communication

But at the same time, it also compresses a lot of personal space

Our dynamics, preferences, and even inner thoughts

Maybe they're all being spied on by others without realizing it

The sense of boundaries in this situation

Instead, it is increasingly valued and mentioned by people

We don't like to be teased without a sense of boundaries

Do not like to passively release information on the internet

Not just WeChat messages

Also, there are group settings for Moments

Social media accounts on other platforms that are unwilling to disclose to people around them

Including the "Momo" army of "hidden in the internet"

It's all about us on the internet

The way to hold onto one's own personal boundaries

So here comes the problem

Can it be considered a social tacit understanding that one cannot read back?

When I was a child, in etiquette classes

We have learned the etiquette of face-to-face communication

As I grew up, I also discovered a set through my own exploration

Etiquette Belonging to Internet Communication

such as

If you have anything to say, don't ask, 'Are you there?'

Avoid replying with the single word 'oh' to make the attitude appear less cold

Some emoticons are implicit expressions at the end of a conversation

It's all a consensus on etiquette in internet communication

Should replying after reading also be considered a form of social etiquette?

Whether it's counted or not, ultimately

Social apps are just a part of our social life

Cannot become an absolute basis for judging a person

Give each other some personal space

Active and direct communication is the key to breaking down barriers

The best way to hold onto the boundaries

After all, sincerity is the biggest necessary skill

What do you think of 'cannot be read back'?

What borderless behaviors have you seen?
