General community for news/discussion in the UK.

Less serious posts should go in [email protected] or [email protected]
More serious politics should go in [email protected].

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.

Crack on Reddit I'm Done Anyways.

I was mainly a lurker on reddit with only occasional posting. But I'm done with it anyway now. Always felt a little uneasy as it was like the last social media 'product' i consumed after purging all other mainstream ones.

This latest drama has just shown the company management of a single website is making changes in view of its own profits. I thought i was a user but maybe I'm a customer. But have no interest in that. I'm free now.

Think I'll float about the fediverse for a while. This is 1st post so might not actually work ha

It worked!

Reddit was the only social media I used too. After finding this, I can take or leave reddit. I prefer smaller community anyway.

Cheers!

Still had to edit it as cocked the title up ha.

Yeah more manageable community sizes should be better. It always felt true about the shouting into the void on subs with hundreds on comments and bots.

So far this has felt more like an upgraded discord chat.

At least you can edit titles here 😁

Oh yeah thought I'd really messed up. Unless beacuse it was within certain time etc. Haven't tested that further.
