Would blockchain work better for the Fediverse, instead of Email Style Instances?

I recently came across three separate platforms:
Qortal: https://qortal.org/
ZeroNet: https://zeronet.io/
and
Plebbit: https://plebbit.com/
That all claim to be completely decentralized.
There’s even talk about how Plebbit is more decentralized than the Fediverse, because the Fediverse is based off of instances.

And I was curious, would such a setup work better for the Fediverse, or is it basically just a huge scam/waste of time and money?

“Better” depends on your priorities.
During the ‘web3’ wave, the crypto bros had lots of time and LOTS of money to make this happen. They failed.

Blockchain is generally less privacy oriented, more trackable, so more data brokers.

I don’t think we need conditional sentences when talking about this. These platforms exist. Just go there and have a look. I’ve scrolled a bit through farcaster.xyz and maybe one or two others. And there are a lot of them which got passed around and failed.
