I actually really enjoy this, it’s really cool to login each day and only see UK specific content in a similar style of the subreddits of old, and with most of the features of Reddit. Previously I had to have them with a multi reddit, but my home page was full of world wide content.
I like that due to federation I can still look at content from around the world but it’s not my default experience. Feels more personalised.
Yeah, it’s really great. I’m a bit sad that UKCasual has ended up somewhere else though…
I suppose there’s no real reason not to start a UKCasual here and may the best community win!
I should of just done it in the first place rather than moan about it haha!
Edit: Boom! https://feddit.uk/c/casualuk
Just had a look and there is currently:
- casualuk@feddit.uk
- ukcasual@lemmy.world - 493 subscribers
- CasualUK@kbin.social - 15 subscribers
- ukcasual@lemmy.podycust.co.uk - 2 subscribers
It’ll be interesting to see how things develop.
Yeah, I have done the same. It shouldn’t be a competition. I wouldn’t be surprised if some of the others aren’t actually full of Brits, so hopefully ours is quality over quantity haha!
There’s a lot of chatter across the lemmyverse about how to solve fractured communities with the same topic. Maybe it won’t be an issue forever.
UKcasual on lemmy.world has 2.33k subs. You’ll see a different number depending on which instance you view it from. To see the true number, you need to view it at the source instance.
