Email was actually one of the first aspects of the "classic" Internet to fall to the gentrification of the tech monopolies, long before the web in general.
But isn't the federated nature of email the only thing which prevents the said monopolies from taking over email completely? If it can be proven that X giant is blocking mails from Y small email company then they're in lot of trouble at least in EU.
That's the reason chat and everything else is a lost cause; Can't send a message from Messenger to Telegram unless you use their bot API to build a specialized application[1] which is a downgrade from XMPP like interoperable protocol.
