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.

Learn to install parental filtering on your device if you’re worried about it.
Clearly people want BlueSky for very different users cases than me. TBH, it's not been an issue for a while now, maybe because I've blocked so much of it when I started I guess.
I always had "Show NSFW content" unchecked, so it should never have that shit come up.
To be clearly, I don't support them doing this. Unchecking "Show NSFW content" should have always worked. If that doesn't work reliable, why will this identity verification privacy invasion.
I haven’t had a problem with NSFW content when that setting was turned on. There are occasionally shirtless pics of men There’s also a lot of clothed anime titties (think Lara Croft).
If you’re really worried about what your children are going to see, you really should install some sort of parental filter software. BlueSky is not the only app that can expose children to adult content.
I believe there are also a lot of pre-made blocklists you can set up on blue sky that might help you. Though I have not tried that myself yet.
I hadn't explored block lists on bsky. Just looked, and added a few, though it is seams focused on anti MAGA/fascist/racists stuff. Pressing subscribe to get to block is not initiative.
