General community for news/discussion in the UK.
Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.
Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

It'll end up the same as the online safety act that's going to block Wikipedia and leave us with corrupt rag press to rely on while they spam daily transphobia lies in lieu of info or like that time the elderly tried to ban young people from driving because the elderly are fucking nuts and shouldn't drive, or ban flavored vapes. This nation is quickly becoming hell on earth the likes of Russia with crazy income inequality and bizarre draconian laws meant to break your very soul.
