No, .world is not anything like a 'main page'. It's just the largest "instance".
Lemmy isn't even really a site, it's more like what email is - a data exchange protocol.
You see mostly .world content because you share that domain, and they've "blocked" a lot of other domains.
You can make an account at any-other instance and see a lot of other content. Lemmy.world has "blocked" (defederated) with a lot of instances, so you're not seeing everything.
Sync is just an app that lets you view your account content (similar to how gmail the app lets you view your email content).
