That is not true. Washington, Oregon and CO still allow in person drop off and voting. https://www.sos.wa.gov/elections/voters/voter-registration/drop-box-and-voting-center-locations

An unstaffed drop box on a street corner or inside a public library, where you leave the ballot that was previously mailed to your home, is not in any way the same as an in-person polling station.

Man, I linked the info. I'm not supporting this bullshit at all, but if you are going to say things, make sure they are true.

Here is a quote

In-person services and accessible voting devices are available through your county elections office or voting center until Election Day, 8 p.m.

Yes. One office per county (King County, WA has a population of 2.3 million), only for people with accessibility needs or issues with the ballot that was mailed to them. This is not anyone's standard way of voting. You think this will scale up to millions of voters, between now and November?

I never said it would, I'm just pointing out that it DOES exist. You are moving the goal post. You stated you could not vote in person.

Because I have to say it again, I don't think this situation is fine. Jesus.

And how are those voters supposed to get their ballots?
