  • I don’t think Lemmy ever claimed they’re decentralised, because it has a specific meaning that sets itself apart from being federated, and Lemmy certainly isn’t decentralised.

    The whole freedom of federation comes from the fact that if you don’t like something, you’re free to set up your own stuff and do it there. In practice, it doesn’t work that well as advertised especially for something like Lemmy, which creates an additional layer of isolation (communities) within itself, but it requires a large group of people in a single community to work. I think Lemmy needs a way to '“merge” communities across instance.
