Oh you're thinking that centralized apps would always produce better UX for some reason?
I think centralized apps are making UX necessarily worse, because they implement dark patterns in order to milk their users, while in a decentralized ones you can just make your own. For example, matrix vs discord, one I can customize and interact with however I want the other is garbage and if I change anything I will get banned.

The topic at hand is mainstream adoption and I think empirically the world disagrees with you.
I'm sure you believe mainstream adoption is a consequence of a software having good UX and being very useful, I don't.
Mainstream adoption is independent if the app is centralized or not. You are ignoring the people who use Netflix, TikTok, Instagram, etc. People care about the brand offering not if they are decentralized or not.
