It's a reasonable concern. The Lemmy codebase development is pretty centralized after all, despite its open source nature.

I think Lemmy, Piefied, and mbin can band together with their shared identity of link aggregator. Fediverse and its ActivityPub protocol in their entirety is great, but it's too much to keep in our limited mental capacity especially when we're looking for something specific.

So far, we've resorted to "the mainstream apps out there (e.g. Instagram, Twitter, Reddit, etc) and their alternatives on Fediverse" which is a good start, but doesn't encompass the varieties out there (e.g. Reddit alternative is often only shown Lemmy).
