Looks that way. Wonder Lemmy will ever become popular enough if they can't keep it up.
That's exactly why decentralisation is good.
Yeah but it's a lot of users to lose, many people will be too lazy to join another instance
Losing the communities would have an interesting effect though
This is why as a community, we should've never allowed things to centralise on LW in the first place.
That's not how networks work. Emergent properties scale with size. You simply can not have kinds of communities the fediverse expects without also creating the problem of centralization. There were extensive discussions around this about two years ago, but it's a fundamental design limitation right now.
