am I the only one to think that in the

    > Keith
    hi
    > Tim
    ...?

interaction, the issue is Tim not answering by "hi, what's up" ? I find that utterly rude

One could also argue that it's utterly rude and disrespectful to the other persons' time to just type "hi".

you... never just say "hi" to people ?

Not on Slack, no.

for me it feels super rude, as in, "you're not a human I like to interact with, just a cog I need to turn to continue my job"

Agreed
