Previous post here lemmy.zip/post/61844, reposting as the community had to move due to vlemmy.net closing.
Why I created another news community?
Spreading the communities to not all be centered around a few big instances. Just a few days ago lemmy.world and lemmy.ml were down at the same time, rendering biggest news communities inaccesible.
I also was sad to see that a lot of “World News” communities had an exclusion rule of a certain region. Which made no sesne to me.

Ah, a fellow VLemmy refugee. It’s honestly a really big shame about our previous instance, but it looks like we each found a new home. I’ll join your new community, I like to be subscribed to as many of the news communities as possible.

The admin just bailed one day without saying a word or giving any warning. He was literally recruiting admins a day before.
