       I miss stamps I used to collect them when I was a kid, but I have no idea where they ended up because we moved a lotMostly, I miss the idea of stamps. Both as a small piece of art and a commemorative history of a journey in time and place

       @cypnk the Netherlands postzegelcode replaces stamps with a handwritten 3x3 alphanumeric grid, which is convenient but unfortunately means no fun art or history in the corner of the envelope.

       @thhttps://nl-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Postzegelcode?_x_tr_sl=la&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-US&_x_tr_pto=wappIt seems each code represents a stamp and is valid for 5 days.How do they protect against people "stealing" codes they see on mail? I suppose there aren't many avenues for people you don't trust to do that though.Also, not very useful to people without an internet connection.@LucasVL @cypnk

       @Hyolobrika @th @cypnk having to buy a stamp can be annoying, maybe its just to simplify things and make it easier.
