    The current setup cntralizes power into the hands of whoever gets traction first on the platform.

    There are other factors at hand, such as the moderation and the instance politics

      Which is another centralization incentive.

      Don’t want to be ostracized because your user is registered on the wrong politic instance ? Join biggest instance instead.

      Going to the biggest local community of the biggest instance is always the way of least resistance.

      And that’s how you make a worse reddit with extra steps.

        There are plenty of politically neutral instance. Most of them are, actually, the only ones that come to mind as politically oriented are hexbear, lemmygrad and to an extend, lemmy.ml.

        That leaves lemm.ee, sh.itjust.works, all the feddit.country, discuss.tchncs.de, sopuli.xyz, reddthat.com, lemmy.zip as neutral alternatives
