If everyone plays nice, you get to have really big islands. But that’s only if your overlords (the mods) allow it. If they don’t like an instance, see ya! I don’t think this happens often other than blocking spam and illegal activity, but you can clearly see how this will make all the mini islands.
I think people tend to be tribal by nature. It would likely be folly to think everyone will not use petty squabbles and minor disagreements to cut off other people they disagree with for the first time in history. This could really hurt lemmy in the long run if everyone only lives on their island.
