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.
It’s been my experience that Lemmy is very anti-libertarian, so if you want to do something that isn’t being gay, doing crime, or hating on capitalism you’re going to get lectures.
As to your question, seems like the environment is too restrictive in the UK right now so people are outsourcing their gambling access. I lost interest in the subject after that(sorry most gambling adjacent I get is penny Texas hold 'em with some friends) and stopped looking.
