As with many other subreddits, /r/LegalAdviceUK (which had been dark since the start of the blackout) has been sent a thinly-veiled threat by Reddit.
So they’ve reopened in order to start moving the entire community of 810,000 subscribers to somewhere else.
As you can imagine there are a number of legal professionals who moderate that sub, and they really don’t take kindly to being threatened. They sign off their reopening message with “Fuck /u/Spez and long live John Oliver.” but for the real fun you might want to look up a very famous British legal case they reference, Arkell v Pressdram 1971.
Just grabbed https://feddit.uk/c/legaladvice too, thanks for the comment/suggestion.
I am cautious of taking ownership too much, as we might not end up using them and wouldn’t want to domain-squat, so in theory I would be open to letting other people take control or decide to moderate them if they felt they were fully invested.
You can always ask the admin to purge the communities if you end up not using them. That will release the name for others to pick up.
