Putting all of the large communities on a single instance is just reddit with more steps. It's good that one of the larger Lemmy communities is not also on the largest Lemmy instance. Lemmy.world suffers a lot of outages (in part because it's so centralized), meanwhile this community remains available.
I'm pretty new here, what is an "instance"? And why is it better to have the big communities on different ones rather than one main?
An instance is just a way to access Lemmy. Lemmy.world, lemm.ee, sh.itjust.works, feddit.uk, etc - you can use any of these to access Lemmy and interact with, and see, all the same content.
It's a problem because most communities are hosted on lemmy.world at the moment, but if lemmy.world ever dies they'll die with it.
They need to add account and community migration as soon as possible
