Jarrett and Tre’vell give the FANTI treatment to the group chat, which Jarrett defines as any text group with three or more people, while Tre’vell does not. And although FANTI implies “fan” and “anti”, theirs is a lopsided discussion that clearly favors the latter, including a sprinkling of anti sentiment for Slack and email. If you happen to be a member of one of their group chats, you may feel attacked.
