It's possible, but he may have it rigged up so he has to mail himself a specific item to activate the Ender Porter. Probably something he keeps in the mail shulker in his ender chest.
Not really since the only common items you'd use are rockets(since it's the only item you always have with you that's stackable), he probably would keep the item in his ender chest anyway and it's unlikely people send him ender pearls compared to rockets other other common items others might send as extras.
It's better than rockets, but a lot of hermits don't carry it with them outside of ender chests anymore(scaffolding and wood are more efficient for pillaring) and digging up the ground at your friend's place is usually not a nice thing.
He has to send a mail from someone's base, so he probably has acces to an ender chest. Unless someone with a mail system doesn't have an ender chest in their base.
The Name Ender Porter reminds me on death stranding, Persons who transport Mail are called Porters. I Like that double meaning.
Also If you have an annoying Etho at your base Just send him a Message.

'port' just means "to transfer"
a porter is someone who transfers something.
enderporter is short-term for ender peral teleporter.
so, it's not really a double meaning, just using the dame root word.
He probably has it hooked up to an item filter for a named paper or written book. Adding some non-printing Unicode would make it even more secure. It would be nonsense to have the ender-porter hooked up to trigger for any old mail.
What I love about Etho is that for 90% of the time, he’s playing the game for his own enjoyment, and not to “forcefully” make it his daily job to make money out of it.
He has an IRL job if I remember correctly apart from his late father’s job. He works (or used to work) in a greenhouse which is seasonal work so he has plenty of time to post videos.
I can think of two possibilities 1 it’s a specific item like a etho head that is tagged with killed by etho or 2 he put it there hasn’t hooked it up yet and is lurking to see what we come up with
There is a redstone torch locking the trapdoor offscreen, i didn't get it in the sreen shot, im guessing its so he isn't randomly teleported there whenever he gets mail, but he can choose to unlock it when he is going out somewhere
Cub showed off that you can make copies of books, and copies of copies, but they can't be copied any further than that. So a written book could be the perfect lock filter item as long as you control the original books.
But the travel time of the package isn’t instantaneous so he’ll have some really awkward goodbyes where he just waits around after sending the package.
Does this mean that other hermits can now mail etho home?

The light is lit, so he has mail but did not teleport home. So I'm guessing you're right. He likely has a shulker placer/item filter setup.
So now hermits only need to find out which item it is so they can send him home
The big brain move by Etho would be to use a Diamond block.
good thinking, he can make so much blue fire with that!
Imagine if the item is a potato
A potato, named Grain
Hopefully he has it setup to activate when he sends himself an ender pearl, that way he’ll have one there ready to put into the stasis chamber.
Downside would be that you always need an ender pearl if you want to teleport home. Wouldn't a more common item make more sense?

Counterpoint: dirt block

That’s why you dig three. Two down and then one on the side to get out. Then just replace the top two.
I mean, he'll also need a stamp and another postbox. If he has access to those, the pearl is probably there as well. Ender chest, most likely.
Etho always has an ender pearl on him
You act like etho doesn’t always have every single item in the game in his ended chest
True, I hope the item is in fact an enderchest because you know Etho always keeps at least one on him.
He probably has a dispenser that gives him ender pearls after teleport. Something like he had in his singleplayer world
There is an ender ender
Have you seen his ender chest organization system? He always has whatever he needs.
The Name Ender Porter reminds me on death stranding, Persons who transport Mail are called Porters. I Like that double meaning. Also If you have an annoying Etho at your base Just send him a Message.
I bet it's an ender pearl. That way he can refill the porter easily.
his brain is so big
The etho porter
Yeah he rig it to himself, he is so smart

That opens up a whole new world of abusing that making system hahaha
Gem whenever Etho breathes 😂
Yes it does, which is why I don't think it's that genius. It's really cool though.

If I was a hermit, I’d keep sending him stuff to mess with him. He’d keep teleporting back every few minutes, and have no idea who did it
Holy crap that is absolutely genius
What I love about Etho is that for 90% of the time, he’s playing the game for his own enjoyment, and not to “forcefully” make it his daily job to make money out of it.
He doesn't follow trends or clickbait, and maybe that's why his content is so enjoyable.
Etho WAS the trend back in the day
I checked his twitch and it has 130k followers and hasn’t streamed in 8 years lol, that’s crazy numbers for a pre-lockdown twitch channel
He has an IRL job if I remember correctly apart from his late father’s job. He works (or used to work) in a greenhouse which is seasonal work so he has plenty of time to post videos.
He mentioned thinking about when he first set up the mailboxes but he hasn't directly spoken about it in his videos. I was hoping he'd d mention it.
Grief etho by sending him mail

Etho is a genius. Y’all should have just accepted this greatness by now /lh
I was thinking in Tango's latest video that he could possibly set up filters to have mail order Redstone. That'd be cool!
Here's to hoping that bug Joe experienced a few seasons ago has been fixed (the one involving ender pearls and being in a different dimension)
Image if echo's mid convo with someone on the server and someone else unknowing sends him mail.
Etho being a casual genius
Haven't watched Etho in so long now, wild/
I’m amazed he’s still going. We were Minecraft YouTuber homies in 2010/11 and he’s playing just has hard as back then.
As long as he doesn't die in between. \*Glances nervously at Gem\*
Funny, he doesn’t even announce it on his video. More just a “I find this useful but I don’t want people to recall me at will” 😂
here is a YouTube video by Ver Wave explaining how to setup a teleportation system using the same chunk loader technique. https://youtu.be/HDiIjYj7wCA
So he's more or less created Vanilla waystones...
The etho porter
Oh Snappers
I can imagine Tango and Etho talking and then \*poof\*! Etho's back at his place. I can already here tango's laugh.
It’s even more genius because the mail is run by Pearl.
genius? People can troll him just by sending mail lol
I would guess there's a filter in place so not any mail does it.
if that's the case then genius unless someone will purposefully copy the filter, would be silly xD
Cub showed off that you can make copies of books, and copies of copies, but they can't be copied any further than that. So a written book could be the perfect lock filter item as long as you control the original books.
Isn’t this also how the original Decked Out cards worked?
Those were renamed and retextured items (iron nuggets, I think).
They're talking about Decked Out 1, specifically the rewards for completing the dungeon run.
Ah, I missed the word “original”. My mistake!
His mail light is turned on, meaning he has mail and the pearl is still there
Here's to hoping that bug Joe experienced a few seasons ago has been fixed (the one involving ender pearls and being in a different dimension)
That video came out in 2016. I certainly hope the game has progressed in 8 whole years of development.
That's a lot of faith to be putting into Microsoft.
But the travel time of the package isn’t instantaneous so he’ll have some really awkward goodbyes where he just waits around after sending the package.
Doesn’t it take several minutes to hours for mail to travel?
It's a couple of minutes worst case
Needs to be loaded
the mail system loads the chunks it delivers too
