Lister is nominally the main character because he is the 'relatable' 'everyman' (obviously both of those are debatable but they are true enough in the context of Red Dwarf). You need to be able to relate to Lister to find Rimmer funny. If you were supposed to sympathise mostly with Rimmer, things would get dark pretty quickly.

I think maybe what you are getting confused about here OP is the concept of main character vs most popular character. It's not uncommon at all for the main comic relief to become the most popular character over the main character. See Sheldon MPC) vs Leonard (MC) in TBBT, Bender (MPC) vs Fry (MC) in Futurama, Stiles (MPC) vs Scott (MC) in Teen Wolf, and really any other character you choose in Arrested Development vs Michael (MC).

Some people then obviously want their fave to be the main character - but don't realise how that would actually change the dynamic of the show and potentially ruin what makes their fave their fave in the first place.
