I was also pondering about that. Even though I haven't really looked into how it all works behind the scenes in depth, on high level I do think it makes a lot of sense to separate content hubs (communities) and consumers (users).

The issue is that content from any instance is physically hosted on the instance you access it from, which could lead to major legal consequences based on the data that might be hosted and the local laws.
If you want full control, set up your own instance. It's what I'm gonna do as well once my financial situation goes beyond eating spaghetti all day
Huh, I guess? I didn't understand most of what you said. But whatever is good for decentralisation is good for everybody, I think.
