Usenet or Fidonet would be a more apt comparison
After email comes matrix. If you include all systems based on matrix, there are hundreds of millions of users already.
Mastadon and Lemmy use the same protocol.
You can even see accounts and posts from Mastodon on Lemmy, and the other way around too.
But yes, email is great.
This smells like ego projection. These are tools for jobs, they don't have to compete.
