I am extremely introverted, but working as a software engineer in a consultancy where the owner wanted engineers to be on the end of phones for clients was in many ways a godsend. The secret of calls is that everyone also hates it. The secret of eye contact is that the other person hates it too, so just do it enough to show that you've tried and that's the acceptable norm.

when yall stop making eye contact, you've truly lost your humanity

Depends, it seems quite inhuman to make eye contact while in an online text conversation. Can you imagine you are typing a response on Lemmy and suddenly some eyes appear on your screen looking at you from the post you are responding to?

For those with aphantasia, simply open a terminal on your Linux machine and run xeyes while you read this comment thread.
