The generation that cant email, text or videocall are dying out. The fact is that everyone laments this, wrings their hands, calls it an outrage and then doesnt send a letter or christmas card ever and already gets all of their bills via email. They love the idea of mail.

It's a really good infrastructure to have as a fallback.

There will still be physical letter delivery, just not by the original historical mail service anymore.

And I'm guessing its some corpo shit, right?

Yeah, it is a pretty bizarre comment section. Mostly based on complete ignorance of the situation as well.
