Feels like the whole scene’s changed lately — between new rules, KYC walls, and crypto sites popping up everywhere.
Are people still sticking with the old-school bookies like Bet365 and Paddy Power, or is everyone jumping over to crypto casinos now?
Also, are welcome bonuses still a thing? I keep seeing offers that sound good but turn out to be trash when you read the fine print.
Would love to hear how folks here are actually playing in 2025 — what works, what doesn’t, and which platforms still feel fair to use.
But we’re not talking about X-Y problems (a concept in IT support and mostly inapplicable in real life) in either OP’s question or my example, nor are those things unethical or begging the question.
The response is still and always to answer it. You’re not IT support talking down to an “ignorant” (in reality they actually just don’t care) user, you’re on equal footing and you should respond.
And lol what efforts? Blocking Imgur? Handing the nation’s IDs to private companies via KYC and now not even being able to browse Reddit without entering an ID to some shady American tech giant? Outsourcing defense to Palantir?
You talk about ethics, here’s a freebie: The ethical thing is to oppose the UK government.
