Incredible to think about that we got it right the first time (with email) and still had to spend the last 20 years complaining about centralized social networks.

It really just depends on how users have to choose a service and how much it matters. With email the service used doesn't really matter so most either use what is given to them (here that's often from their ISP) or what is recomended to them (e.g. Gmail or Hotmail here in the EU)
