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.

50 articles a month AFTER 150 to start with? Idk, if you read it that much then maybe they deserve a little money.

125 is approximately 4 a day, so it's really not that much. I suspect a lot are just opening articles (eg, by accidentally swiping sideways) rather than fully reading them too.

I'd potentially pay someone who is upfront about it, but the Guardian has always said they won't do that and has introduced this without announcement.

The Guardian says in their notice that access through the web is still free. This is for app access.

You're looking at the announcement. Were you expecting a personalised letter?

[–] Mane25@feddit.uk 1 points 1 year ago

This seems to be more of a notice that you've reached the limit than an announcement.
