Instance getting too centralized? (lemmy.world)

EDIT: Thank you all for your answers, now I'm reassured this platform is in good hands and we will always have the freedom to switch. Let's make this place vibrant, diverse and decentralized, like the old web used to be.

I feel like this instance is getting too big and all the content is being centralized here. Am I right or there are other instances thriving too?

Wherever I go I keep seeing lots of lemmy.world users and communities and kind of feel worried about centralization.

For the lazy, kbin.social has more active users than all of lemmy combined but a lot less posts.

@Dav @hydra @314xel @pilvlp just like joining a gym but not using it

Interestingly, Active users ~= Total users on kbin.social. But I have no idea how that Active number is computed for either lemmy or kbin on that site.

kbin.social is really new, so it doesn't surprise me that active ≈ total.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

we're literally a month old, so MAU and total users should be pretty much identical right now lol

Or joining one gym and going to another gym of the same franchise. Just like I'm doing now, hello from kbin :)

I've seen a lot of kbin users interacting with the rest of the fediverse, I think because it has a better sorting, it's easier for us to find new threads on other instances.

It has better... everything. Like seriously better.
