There's always dead fly biscuits. They're usually the last biscuit left.
Hello! Thanks for the quick approval. Any jammie dodgers?
Hey, reddit refugee. Hopefully this new host grows.
Hello there, chocolate Hobnobs I hope ;-)
Of course, we're not barbarians!
hi just arrived! sending v good things about feddit :) im a bit unsure what to do next.. im a phd anthropology, looking to connect around uk/global politics. thanks!
And, as well as the political communities, you also have:
Actual anthropologists chipping in will he a big help in maintaining quality.
If you see a gap for a community, then don't be shy about starting one (just double-check it doesn't exist) and, if you have any other questions then ask away.
Welcome friend! Are you looking for some community recommendations? Here's a list of some political comms:
UK politics
European news/politics
global news
American politics
anti-misinfo (mostly American politics)
War in Ukraine
Palestine
discussion of tech and politics in tech from an anti-techbro perspective
Hello hello what's all this shouting we'll have no trouble here!
This is a local instance for local people.
Sign-ups are spiking again (somewhere on the Big Web enshittification is happening), so re-pinning this.
You are welcome to start a new post in this community to say "hello there" and/or ask any questions you may have. There are also links to other helpful communities in the sidebar.
Thanks for the welcome. Here from Reddit as I think it is getting a bit past it's sell by date.
It definitely is!
Good to have you here.
Only just got here myself. I’m pulling back from unnecessary contact with organisations and countries that simply cannot be trusted.
It's a wise move, we have to insulate ourselves (and others) as best we can. Hope it all blows over.
Not surprised it's getting a bit whiffy over there. I think somebody turned the fridge off a while ago.
Over a year ago. It must be minging in their now.
Im here from lemmy.zip where they blocked uk ip's in due to online privacy laws here
If you're joining feddit.uk because you think our government have a good understanding of how to make laws around online privacy then I'm afraid I've got some bad news!
Welcome over. You should be able to access lemmy.zip from this instance, as we've worked with the Admins there to ensure content isn't blocked from feddit.uk.
Ahoy-hoy. I'm quite partial to Nairn's gluten free chocolate chip biscuits myself. I'm not intolerant of much, including gluten, they just taste nice and make good dunkers.
Welcome, it's a niche biscuit but sounds a solid pick.
I brought some marmite crumpets. They're a bit stale, since they've been in the fridge for a few days, but if you microwave them they should be okay. I brought enough to make a handful of people mildly happy, whilst distressing everyone else
Marmite crumpets are lush. I'll take some if they're still being handed out!

You should really have mentioned that in your application.
And risked it all? Never
I'm new here in the Lemmy place, so just finding my feet. Trying to de-billionaire my life.
Welcome to feddit.uk. If you have any questions then fire away.
Repinning this as we've had a lot of new sign-ups because Reddit shat the bed again.
If you are new feel free to start a new thread in this community and say "hello", especially if you have questions as it'll be easier for everyone else to spot and chip in their twopenneth.
Hi all, I'm new to feddit from Reddit as they are talking about putting up more paywalls for certain content/subs, so I am looking at other alternatives; I'm on iOS.
Is there a feddit that you can ask questions about Feddit, like r/NewToReddit
Is there a Feditt to ask if there are existing feddits, like r/findareddit?
Is there a Feddit to discuss Feddit Apps?
Can I edit/change my username?
Sorry for all the edits & questions, I'm like a kid in a sweatshop, this Voyager App is the closest U.I. to Apollo for Reddit & it feels like I'm using Apollo.
I've brought some Hobnobs with Chocolate on…
I’m like a kid in a sweatshop
Genius.
Is there a feddit that you can ask questions about Feddit, like r/NewToReddit
As you are new you are welcome to ask here (you can start a new thread which would help get more focused advice) but, as well as flamingos' suggestions, ~~I suppose [email protected] or [email protected]~~ would work - they are general communities where folks can ask questions.
I think flamingos has covered the rest.
I’ve brought some Hobnobs with Chocolate on…
You'll fit in just fine.
edit: scratch that, just go with flamingos' suggestions which are now in the community sidebar.
Don't ask support questions in [email protected], per rule 5:
This is not a support community.
It is not a place for ‘how do I?’, type questions. If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email [email protected]. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
Thanks, I'll scratch that.
I've updated the community sidebar with some of your helpful links. If you can think of others let me know.
Welcome friend! Happy to have you here.
Just a note on terminology, but subreddits are called communities here (hence the c/ in the url), not feddits. Also, the software this place runs is called Lemmy, so most places discussing it will have Lemmy in the name not Feddit. For questions about here there's [email protected] or [email protected], but feel free to ask questions here or on [email protected] and people will normally be happy to help (including myself).
Is there a Feditt to ask if there are existing feddits, like r/findareddit?
[email protected] or you could ask in [email protected] which is more active.
Is there a Feddit to discuss Feddit Apps?
[email protected]. To find apps https://join-lemmy.org/apps has a list of apps with filters for platforms. I'm not an IOS user, but I've heard good things about Mlem.
Can I edit/change my username?
You can't change your username, but you have a setting called 'Display name' which can be changed and will be what shows up in most places, e.g. my username is flamingos but my display name is flamingos-cant which is the name you see.
Sorry for all the edits & questions, I’m like a kid in a sweatshop, this Voyager App is the closest U.I. to Apollo for Reddit & it feels like I’m using Apollo.
I don't user Voyager myself, but I've heard it very good. Certainly can't go wrong with it.
The biscuit debate is fraught with danger.
Let me throw in another one though, Penguins or Tim-Tams? This will get the sparks flying, especially if there are any secret Australians hanging about in the forum.
Stealth Australians?!?! Thanks for the shibboleth.
Do tim tams even have jokes?
