I am asking because post https://beehaw.org/post/901466 has obviously been removed by the mod, at least that what I can read in below the headline. But why?

The article linked isn’t up to par with submission guidelines for !news. That’s the thing - it’s just an interview with a CEO, which on its own doesn’t really constitute news. Having taken a look at the link myself, there’s nothing but praises for crypto and not a lot of analysis. Even beyond the fact that it doesn’t hit the bar for being news, it reads like a straight-up propaganda piece. It doesn’t matter whether it’s your own opinion or someone else’s - the link isn’t news.
Per the !news guidelines, mods make the call on what’s remove-worthy:
If our standards for removal aren’t up to your liking, you’re welcome to give feedback on them. But bear in mind that we have thousands of other users with different standards as well. Your personal standards may not map well to moderating the broader community.
I indeed have different opinion on that and could imagine that people from Africa and other less developed world regions would share my view. But I won’t elaborate as I don’t want that to make that a big issue. So for me this is solved. Thanks again.
I think the article could be posted in !technology, but I’ll admit that it doesn’t seem we have a perfect home for this. A different article with more of an investigative/analytical angle about the same phenomenon would be more appropriate in !news.
edit: I forgot we have !finance, it may belong there
