Query

Hello Teachers,

He was angry, and he didn't care about her.
He was angry and didn't care about her.

Are both okay? I am sure the second option is better, but is the first also okay? I take it a comma is essential in the first because we're repeating the pronoun?

Kind regards,
YYY

You are correct on all points, except that neither is necessarily better than the other. One might fit better into a particular context, though.
