Previous post here https://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.

    Even if that’s the case, it doesn’t excuse just bailing without any warning or explanation. It was a shitty thing to do.

      Oh, no disagreements there. It was very shitty and greatly inconvenienced a great many people, pyarra could have at least posted a goodbye post and given us a warning before abandoning the instance.
