Waving from WisCON (I guess?)

lydamorehouseI signed up for WisCON this year, so I am technically there right now.
As I was telling someone, I have been a Discord user for some years as I have a friend in the UK with whom I do the majority of my chatting with via Discord. I have a habit of keeping it on in the background so I can be poked whenever my friend is online, so I'll probably technically be more available at this con than any that I have ever been to before. Especially, since I also have the app on my phone. Feel free to send me a private message if you want to chat. This is me: lydamorehouse (she/her) #3291
I will be very curious how this will play out.
Discord seems to be the only place that things are going to be interactive. Maybe, since I'm not sure what is meant by 'streams,' in the information I was sent today. Otherwise, I guess I'll be watching YouTube videos with the rest of you? I get why WisCON isn't going zoom, though, since that's a problematic app and someone would have had to pay for a license if they wanted anything longer that 45 minutes and a certain number of people.
I'm open to the whole thing, though. Should be fascinating, if nothing else.
