Some people have been asking which communities they should join first, so I posted some remote communities you can subscribe to on the sidebar on the homepage :)
Tech → !technology@beehaw.org

Find another cool community? Leave a comment :)
There’s also this universal community search tool you can try using. If you find a community, just copy its URL and paste it in /search to subscribe to it here. This just goes to show that while there might not be many local communities here on lemmy.one yet, the beauty of the fediverse means that doesn’t matter!
Are there any UK-specific communities?
Did you find !unitedkingdom@lemmy.ml?
Oh great! Oh wait, it’s r/UnitedKingdom not r/CasualUK… I’ll pass, thanks
Some should soo make CasualUK
Seems we’ve now got ukcasual on lemmy.world! (I’ve not worked how to link to communities yet!)
!ukcasual@lemmy.world
This just opens a new browser window on that instance rather than that community on my current insurance, so I can’t actually subscribe/comment from there

There’s a UK-specific instance: lemmy.org.uk
So far the only community looks to be !general@lemmy.org.uk but I expect there’ll be more soon.
