Like some others have said, it all depends. For me, it depends on what and who. When I was working, or for details like time and location, I prefer text because there should be no misunderstanding. If someone says we’re meeting at the restaurant at 6, it’s clear and there’s no “you said 6:30.” No, I said 6. If I’m meeting friends and running late or they’re running late, texts are great. It’s way quicker and easier to send a quick text than to dial the phone, wait for it to ring, then if they don’t answer, waiting for the voicemail.
I don’t mind if most people call me and if I can’t talk now, I’ll let it go to voicemail. I usually don’t initiate calls because I know it’s hard to find a time when the person is free and I hate to bother people.
To make a doctor or dentist appointment, or hair or car maintenance appointment, I call.
If I text someone and they don’t call back, and it’s important or I think maybe they overlooked it, I’ll call, for example if you invite me to your house and I respond “what time” and you don’t respond to the text, I’ll call, because maybe you didn’t see it or you forgot it, and I need clarification.
Some people I communicate more with texts, some I communicate more with the phone.
