I feel like this instance is getting too big and all the content is being centralized here. Am I right or there are other instances thriving too?

Wherever I go I keep seeing lots of lemmy.world users and communities and kind of feel worried about centralization.

    I think it’s ok, as long as federation still works and migration is sorted out. The problem with centralisation is the control that can give. If there’s a mechanism to move a community or user to a new instance without too much disruption, then the users maintain control and have recourse if the operators do something unpopular.

    Mastodon has a pretty good system that automatically moves people’s follows to your new account if you move. We need something like that for Lemmy.
