Yep! Ethereum layer-2 chains like Optimism and Arbitrum are centralized which is why they can be fast and cheap. The transactions eventually settle on Ethereum so there's decentralization there, but first all of the transactions are centrally processed.

Lightning is all peer-to-peer, so there's no monolithic centralized server to handle the transactions.
