By fediverse first, I mean that the app/site/platform was built from the start to be federated instead of being like corporate site but FOSS & federated.

In some respects it feels like many federated platforms have approached things backwards, trying to rework a centralized structure to be distributed/decentralized, creating some of the awkward UX folks experience.

    A fair point, and I don’t think the people coming to Lemmy or Mastodon are the people who are happy with the status quo on Reddit or Twitter… it’s the folks who dislike those services for whatever reason, and are looking for an alternative. Lemmy and Mastodon just provide the smoothest point of transition.
