My instinct is to go the other way: for communication with old friends, I’d enjoy a once-a-week or even once-a-month pace. I approximate that rhythm with many friends now, but there’s always a worry that I’ll drop the ball when life gets busy.

I am thinking of creating a way to specify the delivery settings per-thread, such that messages on some threads take 3 days to deliver, or 7 days, or 14. You could have multiple threads with the same people, with different delivery durations. A core goal is to keep correspondence alive and one of the best ways to do that is to make sure enough time elapses so that there's something new to write.

- r-w 5y agoI was just thinking of that! It definitely presents some difficult UI challenges though… May I ask your thoughts on resolving those?
