Idk I've had the impression that this is not as bad here as it was on the place that shall not be named.
It is. I still wish it "Politics" would default to WorldPolitics" and USPolitics was it's own thing, instead of the other version where Politics and News is US stuff and the general topics need the "World" prefix.
Lemmy.ml has US Politics as a comm, and World News as a comm.
Fair point.
You should ask your instance about that, bc right now it's just mirroring the US-centric reddit trend where the politics community is all just US-specific politics. Same for news, etc.
It's better than on Reddit, which was usually justified by "it's an American site", but it's definitely still here and annoying on Lemmy.world.
