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.

You've just described the 2000s.
Nothing has changed. It just feels that way because we had a brief period of quiet during the 2010s between the endless of slew of wars that have been happening since long before any of us were born, and the invasion of Crimea.
Journos are already growing weary of Ukraine and Gaza. It'll be out of the public conscience by Christmas '24 and noone will remember some toerag general with a sadism fetish and a conscription fantasy talking nonsense on bbc breakfast.
