Thank you @[email protected]

spreading out a bit would be nice, although there are some things that could help some of these issues anyways

• federation: parallel sending per instance
• Federate lightweight list of communities to ease discovery / find remote communities (helps "every community listed there has a much higher chance of visibility compared to an alternative hosted on another instance")

Yknow that's one of the main reasons why I exclusively create communitys and smallerish instances. Especially blahaj zone my beloved

The issue is that a tool to migrate all contents, likes and followers doesn't exist so people are afraid to build on small instances

Hot take: No.

Lemmy.world being the "main" instance is natural, and Lemmy makes it difficult to discover new communities so it's also natural that lots of discussion would be in lemmy.world, too.

There was also still an unresolved issue where some instances can disappear and take out all their communities. Remember lemmy.film? I believe the Lemmy devs once said they want to make a system to migrate communities in case something like this happens but nobody knows when it'll get added.

I think it's a platform problem, I understand that connecting to all sorts of instances is the point of the fediverse but until it becomes more intuitive and less dangerous, I'm going to just stick with the most popular communities. Attempting to move people out of lemmy.world and into other duplicate communities will only split people more.
