You can use it when 'sewing' of course.
But I use it for paper counting.
Shouldn't I get my finger wet every time...
And they also know this at the postal services...

Indeed. Thimbles that were originally invented, for example, to count money notes (in banks), when this was still manual work.
And at the postal service, when sorting letters. When that was still manual work.

You could also use them when collecting stamps. Not to protect your fingertips, but to protect the seals.
A protective rubber, as it were.
