United Kingdom
General community for news/discussion in the UK.
Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.
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.

I said it above, but buying the fresh produce and ingredients to cook up a meal, note costs me just as much as it would to go grab fast food. And like you said, it saves me the time and saves me having to be in a hot kitchen for an hour when it's 35⁰ c outside.
I mean it really doesn’t. There’s literally no fast food you can’t do cheaper at home. Sure, you might have to pay a bit more, but you’ll then have at least twice the amount of food.
This assumes you have storage space, utensils to cook with, money for power to cook, access to a kitchen , etc
Obviously.
Living at a hotel is also cheaper then an apartment if we consider the cost of rent, a bed, electricity, water and etc.
But living at a hotel is obviously not cheaper than renting an apartment, and no one would argue that for like 99% of cases. Perhaps for a couple of days, but long term it will get much more expensive.
As with fast food.
