No response in game chat

How come there's so few that writes back? I usually give out a Well Played where due, specially if my oponent seem to stick around after the game. But 9 out of 10 doesn't even bother a short ty. I try to comment on the game from time to time as well, it's usually met with dead silence :) Are chess players mostly introverts? ;)
Some players could be using zen mode, and around half of the players you play are probably using kid mode. Otherwise, perhaps your opponent is ignoring you because you won against them
"Are chess players mostly introverts? ;)"
probably yes,
and normally you don't speak while and after playing to not disturb other players.
Many players have chat disabled. Many are playing on mobile, where typing out replies is more of a hassle. Many are used to Arena mode where you are pretty much forced to run from one game to another if you want to do well.

Also, yes, the introvert thing may also be true :D
Some of them might not reply just because they don't know English.
If your not playing classical then why would you start a chat? Unless you are playing a long series.
