Mishnah 2
Mishnayos Berachos Perek 4 Mishnah 7
ברכות פרק ד׳ משנה ז׳
Bartenura
אין תפלת המוספים אלא בחבר עיר – In communities of the city, that is to say, as a tzibbur/congregation and not as an individual.
בחבר עיר ושלא בחבר עיר – whether as a congregation or as an individual.
ר' יהודה אומר משמו – in the name of Rabbi Eleazar ben Azariah. There is a difference between the first teacher [of our Mishnah] and Rabbi Yehuda: An individual who dwells in a city where there aren’t ten [individuals – for a Minyan], according to the First Teacher [of our Mishnah] according to the opinion of Rabbi Eleazar who said, that they did not establish this other than with a community of the city, then an individual is exempt. But according to Rabbi Yehuda, an individual is only exempt when he is in a place where ten [individuals are found] and the שליח ציבור/emissary of the congregation exempts him. And the Halakha follows the Sages.
אין תפלת המוספים אלא בחבר עיר. בחבורת העיר, כלומר בצבור ולא ביחיד:
בחבר עיר ושלא בחבר עיר. בין בצבור בין ביחיד:
רבי יהודה אומר משמו. של ר׳ אלעזר בן עזריה. ואיכא בין ת״ק לרבי יהודה יחיד הדר בעיר שאין שם עשרה לת״ק אליבא דר׳ אלעזר דאמר לא תקנוה אלא בחבר עיר יחיד זה פטור, ולר״י אין יחיד פטור אלא כשהוא במקום עשרה שש״צ פוטרו. והלכה כחכמים:

In 1934, the Kozoglover Gaon, Rav Aryeh Tzvi Frommer, who took over from Rav Meir Shapiro (the founder of Daf Yomi) as the head of Yeshivas Chachmei Lublin, initiated the Mishnah Yomi cycle, focusing on Seder Zeraim and Seder Taharos. After World War II, in 1947, Rav Yonah Sztencl, a disciple of Rav Frommer, expanded the program, advocating for a comprehensive study of Shishah Sidrei Mishnah.
