How does that apply to this comment of yours?

In Usenet messages are replicated over all services offering that newsgroup. I hope the downsides are clear.

That's not centralization - unless you also consider the fediverse centralized?

That puts limits on scaling it. Fediverse - honestly too centralized for my taste.
