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.

As long as people think it's too cold in the UK for them to work or that you need to insulate your house to a level that'll make you drown in black mould, I don't have much hope

Too cold in the UK for them to work? We run them in MN where it can hit -25C in winter. On the coldest days they can't be the sole source of heat but they work just fine in the cold.

I know, I'm not saying that that makes any sense 😅 just seems to be a common thought here
