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 advocated for banning them because they're polluting, unhealthy, and 500000 years of human history shows we don't need them. That you insist we DO need them is probably false.
I'll take your personal argument for why YOU use them - they're easy and convenient - but it doesn't justify their continued existence, any more than than the truth that "safely disposing of dangerous chemicals is expensive and inconvenient" justifies dumping them into lakes and rivers
