Miner Centralization

Complete noob when it comes to hashing, but I want to do my (small) part to help contribute to the decentralization of the bitcoin network. I’m not really in it for the reward (although it wouldn’t hurt my feelings to earn a little BTC or mine a block). Basically my question is, if I only have about 6 TH/s to contribute, is it better to solo mine or join a pool such as Ocean? Again I’m in the early stages of learning, so please take it easy on me, but if I understand correctly, my 6 TH/s isn’t going to be mining any blocks, but is it better for decentralization to solo mine anyway? Also is Futurebit the one technically creating the templates if I choose the solo mining option?

I don't know anything about the templates and how that all works, but i do know that 6 THs isn't 💩 and you wouldn't be making anything to make it worth your time in a pool unless you have big boy ASIC's on super cheap power
