If it’s my first message to someone or first message in a long time I’ll start by saying who I am just in case they’ve changed numbers or lost my contact info or whatever. But obviously I’m not going to do that every few weeks/months
That’s reasonable.
My dad doesnt do that and preceeds every message chain with a greeting.
He doesnt do it in a short term context but if a message is longer than (feels like 3 weeks), there will be a greeting.
Not infuriating but it does kinda grind my gears ;)
My parents or rarely messaged folks precede a message by “Hey [my name],
<br>(Actual message content)”.It kinda tilts me as it’s a chat and not an email and I dislike the mixing of those two medium
