The lemmy world admins advertised on Reddit? Can you link an example?
Until recently EVERY lemmy instance was listed on join-lemmy.
They run a family of servers under the world tld, including at least mastodon, lemmy, and calckey. They're all named similarly.
They ARE the biggest instance, but that happened organically. It's not based on any marketing claims from the admin team about being a flagship/super/mega/whatever instance. People just joined, and the admins didn't stop them (nor should they). It's not a conspiracy to take over lemmy. It's just an instance that... until recently... happened to work pretty well when some were struggling.
