(bigger instances are not the point of decentralization)
Aren't you on a big instance?
Only the biggest. as I understand all other instances shut down when the biggest instance wins.
I have accounts on other instances and am considering starting my own. that’s my point - lemmy doesn’t need big instances because federation makes all instances part of the same but decentralized.
Seriously folks, don’t jump on the take over the internet bandwagon just yet.
