🇩🇰 Denmark has quietly done something radical: it stopped pretending the past will come back. By becoming the first country to end traditional letter deliveries, it acknowledged what everyone already knows, but few governments act on. Most communication is digital, most citizens expect it instantly, and maintaining legacy systems out of sentiment is expensive theater. This is an admission of reality. Infrastructure should follow behavior, not nostalgia. When governments modernize based on how people actually live, they free resources for services that matter now, not ones that mattered in 1998. The uncomfortable truth is this: the future doesn’t arrive with drama. It shows up when someone finally turns off the old machine and doesn’t apologize for it.

🧠 Denmark ends national letter delivery
