It's no longer the state-owned post office that delivers it, that's all. It's not like Denmark all of a sudden stops with physical letters...

Yep. It's yet another case of "journalism" where the facts contradict the headline, and they only 'fess up in the final lines of the story:

> Danes can still send a love letter or a Christmas card in 2026, but only through a private company.

> They must either drop it at a shop, or pay extra to have it collected from home, which is available online or via an app.

> By law, Danes must always be able to send a letter. If a private company stops delivering them, the government must step in with a new provider.
