Also, stamp collecting is almost dead (in the West anyway).
Although it isn't just the lack of mail that did that, it was also countries putting out huge numbers of stamps to milk the collectors for money.
- Symbiote 2y agoI think it's equally the reduction of personal letters. Businesses haven't used stamps for decades, so I receive perhaps two letters per year with a stamp. A few years ago someone asked for my address (!) and then sent a wedding invitation, but more recently there's been the same formality applied to asking for my email address to send a wedding invitation.
