Aye, you gotta roll with the punches, right? Yeah I felt it was a shame that UKcasual was already made on lemmy.world rather than feddit.uk, so things are quite spread out / there’s crossover. That’s the nature of the Fediverse though! As I understand it from a comment I saw a while ago UKcasual already had 1k subscribers quite quickly so they didn’t want to lose that by deleting the community to move it here.
My first account was over at lemmy.world - that instance was quite large and well known before the Reddit exodus started. I don’t really log in over there much anymore - quite a fan of the smaller scale and more localised things here. It’s nice to have a reprieve from the ‘american culture’ that’s so prevalent on the internet.
In the end I made an account on both instances too, but mainly because they don’t seem to be federating very well. When I view lemmy.world communities from my feddit account stuff is missing and vice versa. So I use my feddit account just for here and my lemmy.world account for all the other crap I wanna follow across the fediverse lol.
Geez, that sounds like a lot. Hope you’re keeping your head up!
I wasn’t aware of those threads. Sounds like some crossover with /c/britishsuccess …

Well, I’ve just gone and made https://feddit.uk/c/casualuk based on another thread. So we’ll see how it goes. It’s there if people want to use it.
