Why Jami isn't considered as WhatsApp alternative? (self.fediverse)

Jami is p2p, it just cuts the middleman. Is it bad concept? I haven't had the chance to test Jami or Signal, no adoption from my contacts. But, as from a federation and anti centralized services, Jami should be the better alternative, right?

Because it's hard to convince people you know, to abandon what they know and like, and migrate to some other platform they neither perceive as superior, or have their own friends/contacts there.

It's the problem far older than ICQ...
