do you think the fediverse could replace popular social media (lemmy.ml)

At the moment the internet is flawed, do you think the fediverse is the solution?

No. Fediverse is great by design, but is too complicated at the moment (maybe it's just how platforms are set up at the moment).

The design is not too intuitive in looking at other posts from different instances/servers.

For example going to this post:

Clicking [[email protected]](/c/[email protected])
in the sidebar directs me to
lemmy.fmhy.ml/c/freemediaheckyeah
(different instance)
Clicking [email protected]
at the top of the post directs me to
lemmy.ml/c/[email protected]
(same instance)

It seems you are confusing Lemmy (which is one of the federated software powering the fediverse) with the fediverse as a whole. There is a lot of other soft running, like mastodon for most well known or peertube, providing other services, with others UIs :)
