maybe i mean .ml. i was under the impression that .world and .ml were closely related but distinct instances, as opposed to kbin which is federated but not as closely related as lemmy instances. like i said, this is new to me so i'm still getting a handle on how everything exists and interacts.
i think the core of what i'm curious about is if there is an issue if a singular instance in the 'threadiverse' gets large enough and if that has negative implications for other federated instances. if users largely centralizing in this decentralized platform detracts from the goals of federation?
