A lot of the worldnews articles seem to be US centric, and I’m sick of Trump news. Would you please post on the News community instead and only post actual world news here?

Yes, I know US is part of the world too but it is dominating at the moment.

    It’d be better if you had posted some non-US news instead of this. That’s how it works.

    I agree - prefer not to have US news in world news, and I say that as an American. I guess downvotes would be a way to send a message but would be a good community policy imo. Report as spam??!

    Yeah, this was a big problem on reddit, and was the reason I unsubbed from them (when I still used reddit).

    Let’s not make the same mistake here. “World news” should be a mix of news. Otherwise it should just be called “US news”.

    use keyword filtering and filter trump musk etc.

    sync can do it, i’m told connect can too but i’m not sure.

      This is good, yet a bit aggressive for my taste. It would be nice to be able to keyword filter only for specific communities.

    I think more regional news communities might help, including a US news community. Then, we hopefully get multi communities soon, and can group as we wish.

    Pretty on the nose, don’t you think?

    So OPs only post, ever, is to bitch about what other people post? Just post interesting stuff from your country instead of complaining that the rest of us don’t psychically follow your very own imaginary rules you made up yourself.

    The US is a part of the world. If most users are from the US, then their news is going to be of the US. It’s unfortunate that your country is not represented here, but maybe you can help the matter by posting local news instead of cwying about others. Nobody else is going to do it for you.

    America dominates the world in almost everything 🦅, it makes sense that there’s more news happening here than anywhere else
