United Kingdom
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.

1st world entitlement: I demand flawless internet when I am going faster than any animal on the planet, through valleys and tunnels cut through the surface of the earth.
Yes people expect flawless internet, when that is what provideers advertise. How many ads were there in the last 25 years of showing people on trains working through mobile internet? If you can't hold up what you advertise, you're just scamming people. It's not entitlement to expect what you've been promised.
Oh well if they are advertising that then yeah they should provide it.
It's not entitled to expect to get what I pay for
And I'm not even expecting flawless. I'm just expecting it to work enough to be able to do my job
The second half is such a non sequitur that you might as well be trolling
Trains often go in places it's unreasonable to expect a signal to reach very well. Like underground or surrounded by high cliffs.
That's not the route I'm talking about though is it?
Sorry for not having taken every rail in the country? Pretty sure every train I have taken goes through a few tunnels and many areas that geographically are going to be poor signals.
You don't need to, just the one mentioned in my first comment
You then proceeded to tell me I was entitled, despite apparently not knowing what you were talking about
