Several of these things are being actively worked on. For example, PixelFed is an Instagram clone built on top of ActivityPub that currently looks like this https://mastodon.social/@pixelfed/100229934638171208 (screenshot, not a link to a live instance) and Aardwolf is an in-development federated social network that's intended to have a Facebook-style interface https://github.com/Aardwolf-Social/aardwolf
They're not there yet, but people recognize their necessity and they are in the works!
