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.

What about for you? I would love a helpful verified label when watching some of these youtube videos, save me some sherlocking.
In UK NHS webpages are very good. And outside of UK, I guess adding NHS to the search query would bring NHS pages as top results. For health related information I don't think people should consult youtube anyway.
I don't really get health advice from YouTube, but yeah, it would be useful for those who do. It just won't be any help for those who actually want to be misinformed, sadly.
My parents believe stupid shit once in a while, thankfully they arent stubborn about it. All the best of luck with yours.
