United Kingdom
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.

That's always the problem with escalation wars on this sort of thing.
Incidentally, I saw reports today about the fallout of the regulation in EU press. One highlighted as a success of the measure that traffic to the top porn sites from the UK had dropped by about half (which shouldn't have been the case if only underage users were blocked anyway). It proceeded to flag all the EU countries prepping similar regulation.
In their defense they also reported further down the article that VPN usage had skyrocketed and traffic to smaller, less safe sites that had just ignored the regulation had gone up a lot as well. I'm sure that's unrelated, though.
