I think the lemmy.ml community is distinct. I suspect it will be a case of a handful of communities opening up on different servers, and over time one (or a couple) will "win".
What you're seeing is the fairly meaningless count of accounts on your instance that subscribe to each community. You have to look at the "home" instance to get accurate total subscriber counts.

Could you explain the difference between .world and .ml? Are they separate sites entirely (like Reddit vs Twitter), different "subreddits", or something else?
They're different federated instances.
worldsubscribes to a community onml,mlstarts copying new posts toworldso users there can read them.worldcomments or posts to a community onml, it gets copied the other way.instance-aposts on a community onml, that post gets copied toml, which then further copies it to all subscribing instances.All of which is to say... many Lemmy instances federate together to make a super-reddit. Each individual instance participates, and you can (mostly) make an account on any instance and interact with users and communities on other instance.
