Google tried about 10 years ago with a real-time hybrid. It was really good, but didn't get enough users so they killed it off

nothing will replace email said the guy that runs an email platform

To answer this question, one must understand the needs that emails address: - asynchronous communication - receiving notifications - identifying oneself / proving identity - staying informed (newsletters) - etc... If another technology can better meet all these needs, it will replace email. Otherwise, it's possible that a combination of several technologies, better suited to specific needs, may emerge. In any case, resistance to change will be difficult to overcome.

I don’t think emails are going away anytime soon.

Emails are here to stay forever. Way of interacting with it may change.

It is not going anywhere. i wonder, why this doubt came at this time period, where some offices still need hard copy of every email 😂😂

Email means an official way to send your message, I think it will not be replaced!

The thing about email is its seen as the professional standard. It just has a different tone for communicating compared to other platforms. So, no, i dont think any tech will replace it.

it is funny how people keep asking the same question Again and again and they have been asking it for decades now. and the fact is that email has been the only channel that has survived the test of time and all other social media channels have more or less vanished they will keep vanishing in the future as well social media platforms will come and go but email will remain the same. And peoples's perception about emails is not about to change anytime soon. so I think email is still a major professional communication platform irrespective of what people say!

Emails are irreplaceable, but their usage will gradually decrease.

It is important to note that email is a very entrenched technology, and it is unlikely to be completely replaced anytime soon.

I think the technology that replaces email will be a combination of messaging apps, voice assistants, and AI. We're already seeing some of this happening today, with tools like Slack and Microsoft Teams integrating with voice assistants and using AI to automate tasks like scheduling meetings and translating messages.

@mark_curz But we've been having that "combination of messaging apps" for the past 15 years or so and yet none of them has replaced email.

Social media platforms like Twitter, LinkedIn, and Facebook can also be used for communication purposes. For example, businesses can use social media to share updates with customers and employees, and individuals can use it to connect with friends and colleagues.

I don't see email being replaced. I just see it evolving, and still being called email lol.

It's challenging to predict a single technology replacing email entirely. However, the ongoing evolution in communication tools; including improved messaging platforms, collaborative apps, and enhanced email alternatives, is likely to reshape business communication.
