    Well, I didn’t mean that you cannot post about anything regarding the US, for example if the US would achieve something like a nation wide legalisation of abortion again, I think that’s something worth noting of posting here, since it’s something the global population of people who can give birth would appreciate, or if it’s something that involves the US and some other country doing whatever (positive or negative thing). I like the idea of having a place to look for news that involve the world because you tend to see thing you may not see otherwise, specifically news about countries that don’t have many internet users, specifically in a platform where the main language is English, where otherwise it would get filled with mostly news regarding Anglo-speaking countries, specifically in an instance that tries to be general purpose and “international” in some way. I think it also makes sense that your instance’s community works that way, since it’s probably a smaller community. Also having specific subs for countries news makes it so that they have more attention even from people not native to that country, and allow me to see the countries I’m interested.
