    did killing this one healthcare CEO dismantle the entire US healthcare scamdustry

    For some added context, while it didn’t dismantle the entire US healthcare scamindustry, I recall it causing insurance approvals to significantly increase for the next few weeks (like to the level of everything was approved / no rejections).

    I don’t know if or how many lives were saved by that increase in approvals, but if I had to guess, I’d guess that more people lived than died, due to the killing of one healthcare CEO.

    Sorry you ran into those issues and the rude person.

    I think new accounts have some restrictions for the first 3(?) days. My understanding is that this was implemented to try to counter an annoying person who keeps making accounts doing shitty things and then deleting that account and making a new one.

    I’m pretty sure there’s a way to add multiple images to a post, but I’ve never done it.

    For the new content, you may want to try switching your view to “New” or if it’s your first time looking at piefed during the day “Top (x)” [x being how long since you last opened at Piefed]. Those methods usually bring me a bunch of new content.

    Hope your experience gets better :)

    Edit: It didn’t occur to me earlier, but are you on “Subscribed” feed or “All” feed? If you aren’t on all, I would suggest switching to that until you have enough subscribed communities.
