C/[email protected] being US only is weird - Lemmy.world

I guess it is a consequence of the Reddit migration where the habit is just keeping the old community name. But having C/Politics being US only on Lemmy.world, an instance that aims to be international (hence the name), seems weird to me. Would have been cool to give up this assumption that everything is related to US by default when moving away from Reddit. I mean, even the canadian political news of Lemmy.ca [http://Lemmy.ca] is CanadaPolitics.

I suppose it’s about moderation. It would be a bad idea to talk about European or south American politics if there’s only US moderation. Política is a very touchy matter and needs a very good and diverse moderation team.

Which is not an issue at all. Plenty of medium-sized subs have a geographically wide spanning mod team. For a large sub like that it’s a non-issue.
