Edit to add the email I got this week from Harborview/UW health services:
To Our Valued Patients:
At UW Medicine, your access to timely care is always our priority. While our teams are working diligently to meet your needs, we are currently experiencing very high demand for all services. As a result, it may be taking longer than normal to find open appointments with your healthcare providers.
If this is your experience, we ask for your patience and courtesy. Like many other healthcare organizations and industries, we continue to face disruptions from the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on our workforce and operations.
Can you tell me about this site? Denying view without java makes me unwilling to turn on java. Is it another reddit clone?
i dont know exactly how it works but the content is stored in the telos blockchain discussions.app is an interface to that
its suposedly like blockchain twitter, claims to be unmoddable so content can't be removed - though you can ignore individual users so you don't see their content
there is a "communities" feature where people can own a hashtag like I own kotakuinaction2. https://discussions.app/c/kotakuinaction2 I can filter content that people see if they go through the communities interface but I can't remove it, you get 100% of the content if you search for the hashtag directly
Oh, neat, I didn't think anyone was actually running a blockchain-tech site yet. Very interesting, I hope it can grow.
join up, I think there are all of 5 people on it :) but I mostly go to repost kia2 articles so we have a presence there
