    The community was removed from lemmy.ml by their admins. Here’s the reason in the modlog:

    Unmoderated duplicate of /c/usa . Any world-related can use /c/worldnews

      Lemmy & the fediverse needs to be more modular.

      We need… something like a “transfer, merge, fork, split” for communities.

      For example, if these guys are just going to nuke that content, another instance should have the opportunity to either fork it, or merge it with another community. Its mostly the same stuff as would have been in c/Politics here.

      And what it does now, is it puts even more editorial power in the hands of fewer people (ones that ml probably) don’t vibe with.

      Classic boneheaded decision.

      Geez I can’t believe a major group was nuked just like that. I never noticed anything about it being unmoderated but thank you for providing the explanation.
