> I booked my first doctors appointment online this week.. blah blah blah stupid selfish rant

You asked yourself how would the system work best for you. Not how would the system work best for everyone. Elderly people make up a large proportion of GP appointments. 20 years ago they weren’t going to be booking anything online. Even today there are many that won’t.

> Elderly people blah blah stupid dumb nonsense

Elderly people can still book over the phone. Use your brain.

Not if all the slots are booked up online. Look at what happened with driving tests. They moved it online and all the tests are booked by bots and sold to the highest bidder.

How exactly do I sell my GP appointment? This is such a dumb take. No wonder it took 20 years.
