Boo hoo, I am so stressed! I can only fly in a gold plated private jet instead of a rhodium plated one. The west has fallen, trillions must fly

There was a project called Yacy but it clearly never took off.
just like RSS feeds did not become mainstream while Reddit did, the current state of the fediverse will not gain mainstream popularity; however, it’ll serve as a stepping stone towards a new federated internet that’ll be seamless and intuitive for non-technically-inclined individuals and those who are indifferent to the implications for privacy and digital freedom.
97% of people will only jump from walled garden 1 to walled garden 2
97% chance of being EEE. Suddenly everyone will be coming to the Fediverse but not because they're interested but to talk to people on Threads. Then they're going to deviate from the AP spec slowly and become the de facto standard and so on. Or they're going to pull a Google Chat.
Even if it was, it's a red herring. Lemmy is AGPLv3 licensed to ensure you will always have the liberty of knowing whether a malicious instance is doing shady things with the source code. On the "enlightened" platforms you have no such possiblity. I can't stress enough the importance of a strong copyleft license for most important software you use.
Not being bri'ish
Just kidding, I'm neither lol
