> The point is to either host your own instance, or use the instance of someone you trust and/or whose moderation policy you align with.

This should be the goal but will never happen with an activity-pub-based fediverse. It just doesn't scale to everyone or even every small group having their own instances because. Current fediverse software is also too complicated and too resource hungry for even most technically inclined people to self host.

You really need a better foundation that is designed for efficient communication between millions of hosts from the start.
