Why it worked
The video likely resonated due to its novel and humorous concept of a deliberately slow communication method, tapping into a desire for digital detox and a playful critique of instant messaging culture.
Summary
The video discusses a hypothetical texting app where messages are sent at "pigeon speed," taking 22 hours to travel from LA to NYC and sometimes not being delivered. The creator humorously suggests this slow method could be a way to detox from social media and encourages viewers to imagine how carefully written messages would be.

Wait the idea is
Spent 3 weeks building a texting app slower than email. Messages fly at pigeon speed — LA to NYC takes 22 hrs. Sometimes the bird doesn't & the message isn't delivered.
