This is a big problem. It creates the illusion that /c/cats on one particular instance is the real /c/cats.
This is the root of re-centralization and it must be pulled out.

This is really terrible news. This means Lemmy has no chance. It’s just another Reddit. I hope this flaw is fixed and soon.
If the cool bar sells out and becomes a rip off. The community of that bar does up and leaves and then coherently as aunit join another bar.
What happens is, that bar community simply dies. It’s members scatter. The end.
If that was like you said, Reddit community as a whole would already have left Reddit and we’d all be here.
This is a system killing bug.
What does scatter really mean in the threadiverse? You and me sit in different bars, and can communicate and see the same communities, so it doesn’t really matter if we are “scattered” or all on the same instance, since we still see and can communicate on the same places.
