Now to just need to replace all the other social media with open source

Think about it, open source twitter, open source tiktok, open source instagram

Mastodon and Pixelfed predate Lemmy

Mastodon in particular had a big boom after the whole deal with Musk. It's more popular than Lemmy still.

Open source TikTok is a different deal, uploading videos takes a lot of storage space. Plus it's hard to imagine TikTok really taking off without the profit motivations behind it.
