I really don't think this is a major problem for Lemmy. Users won't find the proper community and leave Lemmy, or what's the idea here?
I don't think there is even activity enough to worry about those things yet.

This problem is part of why there's not enough activity. Any activity that happens in the threadiverse is spread across multiple, duplicate communities. That makes it harder for communities to build up active userbases and makes users themselves less likely to post or comment.
In theory yes, but everyone posts to Lemmy.world or Lemmy.ml, so I haven't seen this becoming a practical problem myself.
The real problem is how do we centralize all communities. I mean, there's a Linux community on lemmy.world, but also Linux Web sites, forums, chat rooms, people on Twitter that post about Linux. Sometimes people talk about Linux in emails, or text messages. They're probably having in person conversations about Linux. This fragmentation is ruining things.
A community to talk about the Fediverse and all it's related services using ActivityPub (Mastodon, Lemmy, KBin, etc).
