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 know I noticed it seem like almost overnight a few years ago that a bunch of American places online were suddenly angry about it. But no one in the real world cared. If it's regional in the UK then I would guess London follows the US more than the rest of us?
It sounds like you were just out of the loop to me tbh, and are assuming cause you live in bumfuck-nowhere, where it's like the 80s never left, that everyone else does
Pretty large town but nowhere near London
