I have my own (managed by masto.host) #Mastodon instance since 4 years.
On a typical day it handles 20.000 tasks (pushing new toots, synchronising, cleaning up etc).
Yesterday it went to 500.000 tasks.
And that's just one simple single-user instance. It's almost magical how the federated, distributed network of all ActivitiyPub instances managed to survive that brutal Tsunami of yesterday.
In short: We are ready for a new and better future, free from centralised gatekeepers.
