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.

YouTube is... social? I thought it was just a pile of videos.
if only there's a kids version of it... that somehow has even more addictive algorithm than the adult version...
It has a comment feature
Almost anything has comments. Even the shops with potatoes and socks.
Which is why these kinds of bans will always be extremely inconsistent, ineffective and ultimately only harmful to the people who cannot get around the bullshit blocks that the vast majority of kids simply circumvent.
So the kids with tech savy parents get to learn how to access the internet and get all those benefits, but kids who grow up without techy parents are thrown to the dogs, sounds fair!
Occasionally I think it’s weird how it used to just be this place to upload random videos for people to see, and now it’s all pricks with pencil mustaches narrating into a light ring and building a “brand”, and adverts and paid promotions. I think the last thing I bothered to upload was some idiots in armour battering the shit out of each other in a field.
