    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 ;)
