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.

Theoretically could 4chan take Ofcom to an American court for harassment or something I'm wondering.
Funny you should mention it…
4Chan launches legal action against Ofcom in US
Harassment for enforcing regulations? No.
Sure, why not? The UK has no right to enforce its fines, but 4chan probably does have the right to seek remedy for civil damages like dealing with this.
The UK has every right as long as the site is accessible there.
A man is nude in a designated nude beach in France. A man in England with a good telescope views this nude Frenchman. Is the Frenchman in violation of England's laws against nudity because he can be seen from England?
The answer is, "Of course not", and the reason why is a large army with the words, 'Armee de Terre' on their uniforms. The only laws are enforceable ones, and if you try to enforce your laws on another country without their say-so, that tends to be what they call a 'casus belli'.
