    Tbh we could have it and see where people go. No reason to just copy Reddit

      True. Reddit evolved organically, whereas a new start lets us put a bit of planning in.

      So you could have:

      News:

      • UK News - for serious news
      • And finally - less serious news

      Non-news:

      • United Kingdom - more serious discussion of British issues
      • Casual UK - for less serious discussion of it

      Over in the other discussion I also suggested c/muckraking for tabloid journalism and gossip (which would give people the chance to block it and not have it trouble their timeline).

          Honestly, I’m in favor of seeing where things land.
          As we’re a smaller instance, more “general” communities are good for keeping things feeling active.
          But if people are keen to try starting things up and seeing how they go, I don’t see any reason to stop them, other than mentioning my previous sentence.
