And so far, I like it a whole lot! I swear, Reddit’s entire UI has become so crappy! As long as the site maintainers keep doing a good job, I’ll be coming here now!

Oh no, the Fediverse runs a bit differently since there are dozens of servers running independently, all sharing information across the network. I don’t think advertisers could exert any sort of rules beyond the instances that get paid. That said, the overwhelming majority of instances seem to run on donations.
Dozens?
The fediverse is currently sitting at 27 000 servers. And that’s before you include other federated platforms like matrix that don’t use ActivityPub.
Some of those are single user instance, of course, but even that illustrates how the network wont be running out of nodes any time soon, as people are joining it by setting up servers entirely on their own terms.
