We don’t have the same health insurance system as the US, but I really feel for people anywhere in the world who fall ill and can’t access affordable healthcare.

There is health insurance if you want it in the UK, but most people use the National Health Service, which is free. I am always grateful for this.

Sleeping with the fishes

It is nice! Showing my age but reminds me more like forums and chatrooms.

I don’t feel bad, but having moved a few days ago I’ll share my experience.

I try and come here first, will check the one or two things I’ve posted engaged with, scroll a bit - but realise I haven’t quite joined enough communities for there to be novel information each time I check in.

I then default to Reddit, and quickly go into my default auto-scroll passive lurk mode. I see something new - like the most recent Anonymous hack on twitter, and then come back to see if I can find it on Lemmy!

One key difference is I rarely posted on Reddit, but have felt very comfortable posting here. Not sure why!
