خلفية ثقافية
In the busy streets of Tehran, 'هیچی' is used constantly to keep interactions fast and efficient. Even in traditional families, 'هیچی' is used, but often followed by a polite 'سلامتی' (health/all good) to show respect. On Instagram or Telegram, 'هیچی' is often used as a standalone comment to show indifference. In rural areas, the phrase might be slightly longer, like 'هیچ خبری نیست' (there is no news), as people value more descriptive speech.
Keep it short
Don't over-explain when you say 'هیچی'. The point is to be brief.
The 'Taarof' factor
Remember that 'هیچی' is often used to be polite and avoid talking about your problems.
