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?

This article was written with AI in mind, but it could might as well have been about blockchain. When it first arrived people were so amazed there had been a new software invention that they wanted to apply it to everything, desperately looking for problems for their brand new solution.
If it’s not obvious which problem blockchain solves in a given context, chances are it doesn’t solve any problems at all.
It’s a fun technological showcase though.
