Wouldn’t that go against decentralization?

No, it would not. In proposal 3, communities would still choose whether or not to follow each other, just like instances choose whether or not to federate with one another.

Decentralization is being able to access the same content from different instances.

Duplicating communities is the opposite: now people can't see the same content, they have to follow all the similar communities

they have to follow all the similar communities

See, this compulsion needs to be killed off. Because no, they absolutely do not have to.

If a user wants to see all the activity on a given topic, they very much do have to.
