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.

There's no validation process, even for BBC iPlayer. They ask for a postcode because the regional content within the UK is locked to different countries and regions (ITVX content is on STV player in Scotland).
There isn't a way for them to check your TV licence on ITVX. Even then a TV licence is only required if you watch the livestream broadcasts on the app. If you watch catch-up, streamed but not live broadcasts, a TV licence isn't required except for BBC iPlayer. An IP address outside the UK isn't likely to work either.
