The best thing is how many different servers people are from here. No single gatekeeper who can wreck it.

I’m honestly a bit worried because I’ve noticed that most users are from lemmy.world, and the whole point of Lemmy should be decentralisation.

Yes this is the biggest flaw of Lemmy. It happens because if you go to /c/books, the default view is not an alglomeration of all /c/books on all federated servers.
There are many bullshit reason why this has been refused. Some people try to push for a useless multi-reddit-like solution instead.
But there are fatal consequence for Lemmy not doing this. Largely it concentrates all the power into the hands of the “one big community” (inevitable under current conditions) in the one big instance.
The decentralization promise of Lemmy has been effectively defused by the Lemmy elite from the get go.

Honestly it shouldn’t be either. Moderation requirements are too different and the direction and culture can be way too different.
HOWEVER what we should have is official support for publishing multi-subs, like reddit’s multireddit feature, where multiple mod teams can agree to advertise their chosen combo that displays a hybrid view.
The most complicated part here is deduplication of threads. That’s easiest to deal with by detecting crossposts and showing them as a single view with comments from all participating subs.

Hey nice to have ya!
Friendly reminder that the Fediverse is awesome, and you have the power to control the content in your feed not only by which subs you subscribe to or instances you make an account on, but also which you can block - including specific users if it comes to that. Of course, instance admins can do the same, and if that happens to content you want to see, you can always make a new account on a different instance and see everything.
It takes a little to understand the Fediverse structure, but imo it’s one of the best ways social media can be structured.

Remember to try hiding vote display and see how it changes your usage. It’s underrated feature that imo makes you focus on the quality of the content of the comment/post itself rather than popularity.

I haven’t been over there in a while but I noticed the AIs are starting to show up here. How was it over there? Rough percentage of how many?
