Why are people joining .world to begin with? The entire point of this is to decentralize. Joining the by far largest instance beats the entire purpose.
Join smaller ones like lemmy.one, lemmy.club, lemmings.world, lemmy.zip etc. We might need to start specifically recommending against .world and for general purpose instances like those.
Also, funny how even reddit allows r/Piracy but not .world lol
There's kind of a tension here between Lemmy's design and what makes most people join social media websites. Most people want the biggest, most centralized website.
And instead they get the entire network no matter what instance they sign up for. Well, somewhat less than the entire network, apparently...
(I say this knowing full well how many think they're "on the internet" even though they never leave Meta's corporate web)
