Fediverse is ActivityPub. Email is not, though the theory is somewhat similar.

Fediverse is ActivityPub

According to Wikipedia, ActivityPub is the "most widely used" protocol, but not the "only" protocol. Still not sure if email would qualify though.

fair enough, i wonder if there are lessons to learn from email that can help the fediverse

Well for one, email is inherently insecure, so not sure if the fediverse can learn from that. It’s already not private.
