Lemmy is link aggregator software that exists in the fediverse, meaning it connects with other “ActivityPub” software like Mastodon and other Lemmy instances. Basically, you can follow and interact with communities here on feddit.uk, on any other Lemmy instance, or even from your Mastodon account!
Feddit UK is a UK specific instance of Lemmy, ideal for people from the UK or are just interested in following the UK community.
This instance is hosted by me Tom, an experienced software dev based in London. I decided to host Feddit UK as I saw many instances already made for other countries and none for the UK and saw the need for a UK community on the Fediverse. To help the upkeep cost of this instance, please consider donating by buying me a coffee!
Why Feddit
Feddit comes from the combination of the words Fediverse and Reddit. Lemmy is a new alternative to Reddit based on the Fediverse!

You're doing a great job @tom@feddit.uk and long may it continue. Thank you.
I feel I need to start going on a posting spree, being new here and this place being new. But my mind is foggy and not quite up to speed yet. The most I would manage is juvenile stuff. Not the intellectual, highbrow, informative reading material that I am sure we all desire.
