The fediverse was not about diversity in the first place, its main purpose is to decentralize power from one platform owner to various instances with their own rules. Since each instance can have their own whitelists/blacklists for other instances, there can be less diversity of what people you meet, but people have their own preferences.
If you want a platform where people from all political sides come together (and fight via quote tweets and ratios), then Twitter is your best bet. But not everyone wants to have that experience, and I’ve seen people move to Mastodon to escape from that and have a more curated, closely-knit experience.
