I think this has negative effects on the threadiverse because it tends to keep user's focus at lemmy.world and in general keeps users to stay in their bubbles

Right, but for me, choosing an instance is a matter of moderation, maybe tech-stack/performance and data privacy (maybe some other stuff too) but not the content hosted ON the instance. I mean, thats the whole idea of the fediverse. You choose the social network structure that you like and travel the fediverse with that. I don't like this overly tribel-thinking.

So set your landing page to “subscribed” rather than “local” on whatever app you use. Or take it up with the admin or the lemmy.word community if it causes you a problem. I can’t see how it can put you out that much, or cause “overly tribal thinking” tbh.

It doesn't. I just think it encourages bad network dynamics. But you are right, its only a minor issue
