I think you've made the point yourself, actually. It's even worse if there's only ONE entity in charge, rather than many (as we're seeing from Reddit IMO). There's also the technical advantage of decentralization, server-wise. As someone who has moved over from Reddit to Lemmy on principle (I had no skin in the game), I also think that the federation actually makes a lot of sense, in the long run. I'm definitely here to stay! It doesn't hurt that I was able to keep my username from Reddit (much easier with federation)!
