I genuinely don’t think so. Even though it’s technically federated, it’s still mostly under a thin veneer of an “App”, and hiding its true nature.
It’d be more like if Lemmy.world released its mobile app, that could connect to any other Lemmy instance, but that buried that functionality enough that 98% of people downloading it just ended up on LW.
That’s not really federation, and it’s definitely not doing anything to make people comfortable with the idea.
