I would love this to be the case. But as a greybeard, I seriously doubt it. The masses will usually gravitate to places that explicitly cater to them. That usually means good UX and reliability. That usually means an org (read: company) spending lots of resources keeping things up and improving on UI.
That said, I'm personally willing to sacrifice a lot to be out of a walled garden. My hope is that the fediverse at least has a strong community, maybe ideally without the masses. Gotta start somewhere at least.
It can be done. One example comes to mind (not talking about the backend) is Blender. It's a FOSS software that became one THE 3D animations tools to use.
Perhaps I'm a bit of an optimist but I truly think that Fediverse will begin to shine.
