United Kingdom
General community for news/discussion in the UK.
Less serious posts should go in [email protected] or [email protected]
More serious politics should go in [email protected].
Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

The other thing is that lithium is a finite, hard to get resource that we have a lot of use for, and typically not used in any other mass consumed disposable product.

Gotcha. They certainly seem to have become pretty commonplace. Weird thing here is that even though they're not meant to be sold here (nicotine vapes), disposable vapes are certainly the most readily available, so I've been guilty of buying them on occasion for that reason alone. If you're using one with a tank or pods (still probably more commonly used here) you basically have to order from overseas
