Strawberry, is it normal for some branches to die off? (cdn.masto.host)

I took a strawberry seedling and poured it into a larger pot.

The central part is fine, and some strawberries are growing. But some parts are dying, drying from the base, as you can see in the pic.

I was wondering if it is like basil, where the plants you buy are made of many different plants too close, so it is better to separate them? Or, is there is something else I’m doing wrong?

Do you have any advice?

Strawberry likes to creep outward, so those might be looking for more ground to spread into and finding none.
