Another comment in this thread you might already have seen by now:

And there were other instances mentioned in other threads as well.

Some problems are not tied to a platform, but to their users. Power hungry people try to grab power where they can. If they can't be mod on reddit, they move to Lemmy. Here they can try to grow "their" space. If a topic already exists on one instance, they can move to another and shape the narrative and enforce rules how they like.
