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.

I've been able to post on some communities external to feddit.uk but not others. The Apple community on lemmy.world is one I haven't been able to use. When I hit post on my comment, it hangs. I'm also noticing some communities are totally blank or comments are missing when I view them from within the feddit.uk instance. I'm thinking there's some federation issues going on.
So far I haven't been able to comment on any other instance because I get "language_not_allowed" in Jerboa.
Looks like part of the issue is that Jerboa doesn't let you select the language of your comments. It worked when I did it in a browsed
I’m not using Jeroba, only the desktop or mobile webpage, so I think the issues are not exclusive to Jeroba.
I'm wondering if it is related to the configuration of feddit.uk
