I thought it'd be nice for the rest of the world to have a de-america'd instance where there's no discussion of america, certainly no american politics, and no americans are allowed via IP block.

But I think to do that effectively, you'd probably have to defederate from most of the rest of lemmy, and then you've lost most of the federation benefits of being a lemmy instance. However I'm only vaguely familiar with how all of the connections work so maybe someone can correct me.

So do Americans. Hence why ‘politics’ and ‘news’ on .world by default are American politics and news.

Even the community intended for non-American world news is in practice flooded with American news anyway.
