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.

Worth it tbh.
The only thing I object to is having to sign in. Even with lemmy, if I could stay fully anonymous, I would.
But the Guardian tends to do responsible reporting, which is vanishingly rare.
Their opinion pieces and lifestyle sections are a bit crap though.
That's the truth, but that tends to be true of any newspaper type news service now (and has been true of lifestyle sections going back as long as I've been alive lol).
Sometimes the lifestyle stuff is quite funny. Wasn't the one guy at one point who was documenting his war with a squirrel?
