Also why do the links all go to the original instance instead of opening on mine so I could easily subscribe?

Moving to PieFed OK, but why everything to the one instance? Didn't we learn anything from having everything @world?

Unsure what had happened in another post and poked in my instance's main(?)/meta(?) community (!askthebrainbin), but after a short back and forth, and seeing the behavior repeat here as well, I think the owner's assumption is correct, the first of each pair of community links here is actually a hyperlink manually created, while the seconds are proper sharable communities.

Sorry, on they work on Lemmy. I'm not sure how to do markup for non-Lemmy instances yet, I'm learning.

It would be one thing if this were several people moving their comms to Piefed.social, but it's literally just me. Piefed.social is still small, I don't think me moving is going to cause it to centralize, especially considering that there are other major Piefed instances already extant.
Decentralization should be done by different people and groups choosing different instances, but all of us federating with each other and participating in each other's comms; not in expecting one person to spread themselves over half-a-dozen different instances.
