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.

I would say just nationalize it but tbh it sucks, between reddit and twitter im surprised there aren't enough bot accounts to cause some sort of digital singularity and not the kind the nerds want
Edit: the X part made me think you were talking about twitter
How would nationalising a us company work?
Are you saying it's not possible to nationalize a foreign company when that's literally why iran exists today as an Islamic republic (attempting to nationalize the AIOC, now British petroleum)
Nationalizing tech shit is even easier because intellectual property is fake bullshit and there's no need to possess physical infrastructure
Twitters servers are in the US. What exactly do you plan to nationalise, digital infrastructure is not the same as an oil well in your borders.
What are you going to do, send a strongly worded letter to the US saying “we demand you give us your source code and complete infrastructure setup so that we can duplicate it here”?
