I am European and see another US news oriented site which ironically is not "minimalist" from my perspective. It is (to me) littered with US domestic concerns. My point is that _minimalist_ is highly subjective and a pretty huge promise from a site.

But kudos to the effort and the idea of keeping news small is a most noble cause

The problem is that .com is a de facto US TLD… as an American it doesn’t strike me as odd that a .com site is implicitly USA centric any more than a US news channel or US newspaper.

(Yes I know .us exists but it’s not as common as .com)

If it was newsminimalist.co.uk I don’t think anyone would really complain that it’s UK-specific news, right?

No, .com isn't implicitly USA centric, it's just the internet default. You mention .us yourself but then dismiss it because reasons.

Your American bias is just shining through, where of course you're not surprised.

Those both mean the exact same thing in this context. Genuinely interesting that you're not the only person who understood it a different way and suggested "default" instead. Neither would stand up to such pedantic scrutiny if you want to argue that one of them is wrong.

In such a short sentence about a topic that everyone here surely knows about, the words only reference the relevant aspect of the underlying information. You can't know if they have the wrong or right view without more information.
