is it appropriate to text your friends and family at midnight on new years or is it a bit much considering its so late?? i don't wanna be rude but i wanna try and actually stay up this year, so texting a message to people would be nice if its acceptable

Calling is rude. I personally sleep at midnight regardless if it’s new year or not. But texting is fine as it doesn’t warrant immediate response

I text family New Year's Eve all the time. Never had any complaints. And I get texts too, no complaints from me.

I don't stay up late on new years. My phone is on silent. I have no problem with people texting me.

Do you know if they're usually awake or not? Based on that, you can decide whether to call or text.

I dont see where in general this would be a problem on NYE.. I often get texts late night from people who work late.. I do not have to respond right away so to me its fine.
