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.

I agree with you that more news communities is a good idea.
As well as your own new community, you would probably enjoy the world news at kbin social, their rules specifically state that US news is world news.
