OP’s thread is about american politics being everywhere, if you read a sentence beyond the title. I did not change the subject from that.
I guess we have different definitions of curation. To me that’s a way of filtering out stuff so only what is of interest remains. To you apparently curating means not using the platform at all, and replacing it with a different platform that will just have the same issue again.
Also, me using lemmy as a news source is not changing the goal post, it is asking for specifics on how to implement your proposed solution. If you say that getting US-centric content is a user issue because they are lazy to curate, and then I ask you how to actually apply that in practice, that’s still the same discussion.
So maybe to simplify and go back to the original subject. You say generic big communities are bad and you block them to avoid what OP is complaining about and this is a solution that all non-lazy people should do. Can you recommend some communities here that can provide similar content to the big generic (worldnews/tech/politics/entertainment) communities that don’t have US centric content or bias instead? Or are you saying something else altogether and you don’t have a solution for the problem and I misunderstood again?
