A Letter from a Slow Era

Note

Once, horse-drawn carriages were slow, letters were far away, and one lifetime was only enough to love one person. This sentence is from the poet Mu Xin's "Once Slow."

This blog post discovers The Delayed April Monthly Report | Programmer Mingming
Slowly, this letter-writing app
Slowly - A New Pen Pal Platform
This name has a strong Chinese connotation
The connection between slow and letter
Android cannot be used scientifically
iOS, after setting the profile picture, cannot proceed to the next step
Mingming said
You need to be able to use Google or Apple’s in-app payment on your phone
I tried entering from the Apple market purchased, and it indeed allowed me to proceed next

Site Unreachable
This article seems to recommend the Chinese version
slowchat
It might be similar
You can write letters and send postcards
I registered one on my phone
You can only send one letter a day
For more, you have to recharge
Or watch ads to earn points
A single word "slow" is enough
Troublesome
Not recommended
The domestic version seems to be usable but is also charged
You can collect stamps
Later, adding NFTs or something similar might already be in place, but I haven't researched it

Recalling reality
In elementary school, I wrote letters with Beijing Hepingli Third Primary School
Later, the teacher had us each spend ten yuan to buy a Uyghur flower hat to send over
They didn’t write letters back
Of course, they didn’t send anything over
Maybe they did?
No imagination allowed

Later, I made friends on QQ
Internet fees were expensive, mainly because typing was slow
Staying up all night with friends
Does writing letters seem very abrupt?
There were also girls who stayed up all night watching TV dramas
Always felt sorry for the computer
Back then

Writing a letter cost one yuan
Relatively still quite cost-effective
After receiving photos from a QQ pen pal
There was no more reply
And then lost contact
If it was just spiritual communication, it might last long
If it was communication with the opposite sex
It would always be based on appearance
Maybe after seeing my photo
The other party also gave up
