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.

Because it's not actually useful, it's just poison.
Yeah, and we need to stop. It's literally going to drive us to extinction, along with countless other species. This kind of apathy is disgusting.
It can be useful. It's a great surface for doing any form of outdoor exercise on.
Pretty absurd to pretend any of its uses come close to outweighing the negatives.
Claiming it's "not actually useful" though is just wrong.
If a thing does more harm than good, it isn't useful, the people using it are just selfish.
That's an interesting new definition of 'useful' you have.
It's certainly more sound than yours, which apparently requires nothing more than "it feels kinds of nice to step on" while it poisons the ground and eliminates yet more of your local ecosystem.
