Because it's client side it's gucci, but has anyone tried these UBO rules with other apps such as weddit or other sites employing KWS?

And, is this gonna be another Consent to Cookies bollocks?

Client side moderation is a Bluesky thing, I imagine this wouldn't work on Reddit et al. but that depends on how it's implemented and is going to be specific to whatever website you're accessing. Or you can just use a VPN, like the BBC put it:

When BBC News wrote about the seven methods of age verification adult websites may use in the UK and the companies who may be employed to do it, one reader comment resonated with many others.

"Sure, I will give out my sensitive information to some random, unproven company or... I will use a VPN," they said. "Difficult choice."

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.
