Regarding Sup: dansup has mentioned that he's put the project on hold until the new EU guidelines around interoperability (targeting whatsapp) are available.
I think it's worth considering a model where one might be expected to provide hosting for their own video. Certainly not necessary now but probably will be if/when video on fedi takes off
This is super exciting. I think one of the things a lot of people are missing here is the potential for small wikis to augment existing fediverse communities. Reddit’s killer feature has always been the massive treasure trove of information for hobbyists and niche interests. There is huge potential in the fediverse to take advantage of that sort of natural collaborative knowledge building process.

It’s normal that there will be forks and alternatives
This is not the sentiment you have previously expressed in direct response to these forks and alternatives. Thinking specifically about your activity in the sublinks announcement posts.
I was having similar issues with the zigbee ones, and I believe it was a known issue with the way transitions were implemented. The solution ended up being to set short transition times across the board. Not sure if that's applicable here, but it may be worth a try.
I think the big reason that nobody's mentioned yet is simply that they were earlier. Back when projects like Tox and Matrix were first starting to pop up, telegram was already fully formed. Signal didn't come until at least a year later and didn't have feature parity until several years later. Telegram by contrast was a much closer experience to WhatsApp and Messenger, making the transition much easier, particularly for low-tech knowledge users.
A cohesive culture has definitely formed distinct from the rest of the fediverse. I think microblogging as a paradigm kind of lends itself to this but Lemmy certainly has a distinct culture as well.
I would say yes, although there is the slim possibility that these few years are an outlier. No serious person should count on it, however, because the consequences of being wrong in spite of what we're seeing are downright apocalyptic.
Unmanic to optimize your library in the background. Encoding things to x265 can buy you a huge amount of space.
Edit: Reading again i see that you're on a pi. Not at all sure what the video encoding performance is on those.
