    They shouldn’t be created on larger instances, they really should be made on small niche focused instances to spread things out.

        And if lemmy.world went down it wouldn’t be accessible, thus negating the reason for decentralization in the first place. Having everything placed in one instance is not good nor healthy for the future of the fediverse. Having things advertised in the new community community is a helpful way of doing so at least. Navigation of other instances needs to be improved upon though.

        That’s why I mentioned it. At least then they would show up locally for a group of people.

        One thing that might help is advertising in a new-community community but afterwards it would require some extra effort to get it federated across different instances
