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.

You're not wrong. There needs to be slightly better/more informative marketing that your communities are accessible from anywhere, and locale of the server doesn't matter.

People are joining lemmy.world before they learn/understand they can access communities from any federated node (which is nearly everything except beehaw)

Agreed, I did and am still figuring it all out. It's not so easy for those who aren't tech savvy

But only in the early stage. If you got it once, itβ€˜s like cycling a bike.

Best to understand ist to create another account on another instance and then subscribe the same community there. Then you can check which posts and comments are shown how on the feed
