Bilingual Brits? No chance. Most can hardly comprehend English let alone another language.

Come to the Netherlands then. I know plenty of expats who live here for more than a decade already who still can’t speak a word of Dutch. You can get by with English alone especially in the cities like Amsterdam. Even their kids have low Dutch language skills since they go to an international school. You can stay in an English bubble for your entire life if you want to.

I know how to say "appelmaus" but I've probably spelled it wrong.

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.
