I don’t know anyone who doesn’t immediately throw said enveloppe, postage, and letter in the trash

Ok, and that supports the idea of LLM-generated mass spamming in what way…?

Then you are part of truly strange circles, among people who don’t understand human behavior.

You surround yourself with the people you want to have around you.

> I don’t know anyone who doesn’t immediately throw said enveloppe, postage, and letter in the trash If you're being accurate, the people you know are terrible. If someone sends me a personal letter [and I gather we're talking about a thank-you note here], I'm sure as hell going to open it. I'll probably even save it in a box for an extremely long time.

  Of course. I took it to be referring the 98% of other paper mail that that goes straight to the trash. Often unopened. I don't know if I'm typical but the number of personal cards/letters I received in 2025 I could count on one hand.

Yes so this is why the reason why person card/letters really matter because most people sheldom get any and if you know a person in your life / in any (community/project) that you deeply admire, sending them a handwritten mail can be one of the highest gestures which shows that you took the time out of your day and you really cared about them so much in a way. That's my opinion atleast.
