As per our policy of hiding political communities, pornographic communities and communities hosting bot spam, [email protected] is now set to hidden as its content is mainly USA centric political news.

Those of you who want to continue to see posts from [email protected] are encouraged to subscribe to the community, which will make the it visible for your account.

The mods over [email protected] have already been notified of this move and understand our decision, please do not bother them by pinging them here.

I use All to read news, my subscribed feed is all more positive stuff so I don't doomscroll.

I do the same. I'm not going to move instances over this, but it is an annoyance. Hopefully this hiding is temporary, or the issues I filed on Lemmy's GitHub will improve the situation. Otherwise I guess I'll subscribe and unsubscribe every day to check it? Lol

I doubt it will be temporary, all news is going to be increasingly political for the foreseeable future.

I knew the admins were eventually planning on doing this but I didn't realize it had already started and that it affected apps. Unfortunately it's fundamentally at odds with the way I want to use Lemmy.
