Just to clarify your post because there is enough confusion as it is. Atrial fibrillation is not a rhythm we defibrillate. While it can be dangerous it is not a deadly rhythm but could definitely deteriorate into one if there is unchecked rapid ventricular response. Even then we don't defib afib, we cardiovert it or use medical management. Underneath the mess there is an intrinsic heart beat you don't want to disturb. If you defib afib you will likely cause more harm than good
The only rhythms we defibrillate are ventricular fibrillation and pulseless vtach.
We do not use any electricity for asystole or pulseless electrical activity.
We cardiovert afib and supraventricular tachycardia.
Shock is a term used loosely but I wanted to further clarify so people won't run around shaking their fist that no one is defibrillating their afib.

You don't have to say "Hey, I can see your dang-a-lang" but maybe something like "Hey, you might want to frost your window more because I can almost see my reflection in your mirror" might work.
I still don't know what I'm doing so I'm sure this will happen a lot.
Yes, I had troubles too but probably had a lot to do with the influx so I won't hold it against them. I did however land on mastodon because it wasn't experiencing issues which I like a lot. Today has been the first day kbin has been usable for me so we'll see!
Now for Reddit is going to stay open but I don't suspect it will be for long. Reading his post I don't think he has a firm grasp of what it's going to look like working within reddits cogs.
