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 I really like this, it’s nice to be in UK specific communities when I’m set to local and see the rest of the Fediverse on subscribed and all.

    Personally I have an account here at Feddit UK for UK subs, and separate accounts on other servers on Kbin.Social I’m using for non-UK/generic content.

    I’m tempted to subscribe to broader Fediverse content from Feddit UK but then that data would come onto this server (backend). I’m not sure whats the best approach - use one instance to browse the whole Fediverse or multiple accounts on different instances to compartmentalise a little?

    It is nice just seeing UK content when I’m on Feddit UK. I even have a custom Lemmy theme (from https://github.com/2xx04/lemmy-ui-themes/) which I changed the background background to a UK Pic so it is instantly seperate from other lemmy instances. The Lemmy UI Themes are easy to install by end users in their browser (use Stylus extension) and can also be installed and adpated by server owners to theme their server.

      Guess that’s your choice mate, and comes with the extra freedom
