It's not users' fault there's a lot of politics going on right now.

    I'd love to see more international politics, not just usa

    Fair, there's a lot of stuff that should probably be posted in a "us politics" community instead of "politics," and some other stuff that should be posted in "politics" in addition to other-country-specific communities.

    Piefed keyword filters allow to block "Trump", "Elon", etc.

    It's probably even more effective than banning politics communities one by one

    It limits the issue from the user perspective, I don't see US news anymore.

    To address the issue at the core, !news@lemmy.world shouldn't be mostly about US news, but the mods of that community never seemed interested in addressing that issue.

    There is !usa@midwest.social we could try to push people to, but again unless the mods on !news@lemmy.world add and enforce a "no US news" rule there isn't much we can do.

    And they're already busy with something else https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/53505862

    Its not just now, it's been months now. Especially with Trump, have you noticed that users post anything he says? Every little thing.

    There are rea$on$ 💲💰🤑🫰🪙

    Which here on the Fediverse, actually seem to go beyond profit incentive. Morbid curiosity? An odd sense of journalistic integrity like if someone externally made a story about it then surely it must be worth sharing here?

    Anyway, there's also tons of anime and people using Arch Linux btw here - just block what you don't like and subscribe more to what you do. Also if you want something, surely many others do as well so could be worth creating something new to meet that need.
