We drop ours off at the county election office and have since 2020. I don't know if it's a thing universally, but I know in Washington and Arizona that you can check your ballot status online.
Indeed, I did this when I learned about the Phoenix mailbox fire. I knew my ballot wasn't in that box but I checked out of curiosity. My ballot has been received, my signature verified and my votes tallied. Very tidy, convenient and efficient - exactly how it should be in the age of the internet.
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.
