Damn, you got here first! OP, if you don’t find their explanation satisfactory, reply to my comment and I’ll be sure to help.

I couldn’t find a pie chart, but this list should suffice. lemmy.world has as many active users as the five next largest instances. I don’t think that you can make such a binary decision of “decentralization”, but it’s clear that they hold a good chunk of the active users.

My last comment was meant to be sarcastic, but I suppose that I didn’t make that very clear. I just find it rather annoying when new lemmings are steered directly to lemmy.world while hand-wringing about federation being too hard. It really isn’t.
