Yes and no. Yes it’s good to have a larger presence as say the “canonical” sub, but on the other hand having them on smaller instances is overall the better play
To what end? The more spread out they are the less engagement they have and the sub flounders. Look at what happened to r/android. Went from being one of the largest communities on lemmy.world to puttering along on their new instance, losing a good chunk of users back to Reddit where everything is simple and in one place.
This “smaller instance” has 6000 users and predates lemmy.world by 6 months.
Betamax was the better play versus VHS, but we all know how that ended.
In social gatherings people will want to gather in the same place, and then maybe break off into smaller groups for more precise social interactions. That’s kind of the standard normal human thing.
The problem with Federation is it doesn’t honor that. It has everyone create small specific social gatherings on their own, and then having someone from each small gallery run between the different social gathering groups to share what each other is saying
I get on paper how Federation is the best way to go, and I do agree with that. The problem is the human population kind of want all people to all gather in one place, and not try to figure out where they have to gather at.

I think you’re confusing products from the one that I mentioned…
Also, it’s a well-known fact that Betamax was a higher quality recording format, where VHS was a less quality but longer recording time format.

As someone who owned a professional Sony Betamax machine, I disagree.
You can have that machine record at the highest quality setting that a VHS macjine couldn’t match, at least not until the very end of the production cycle war, when they added another mode to some VHS macjines for the higher quality but the shorter recording time.
It was a marketing ploy, it was the battle of quality versus quantity. And quantity won.
