Let it die. Things will die. Old members will get butthurt. New things will rise. This is the way of change. "Fragmented in 1000s of bubbles" is what the Fedverse is anyway from what I understand. Some of y'all are thinking to Reddit-y.
Ok. But how long can it last then? We need a big community where you can attract everyone. It's good that there are allot of different bubbles too. But we also need a few huges ones willing too do the heavy lifting so there is some real content which attracts everyday readers and content creators.
You don’t need a few big bubbles(instances.)
What you need is a well organized search database of communities that belong to thousands of different instances (and need a more streamlined way of subscribing to these communities from each instance).
Since any instance can essentially connect to another (unless blocked by administrators), you can have tons of these instances distributing the traffic evenly so nobody is bogged down and still access so of the communities across the fediverse.
Why?
