Well they are using their free time and talent to make a app for a free service. That’s kind of a default.
But I think people are approaching this the wrong way. You don’t need to support the entire fediverse at once. I know it’s OP’s question, but the reality is that you’d focus on 1-2 of the biggest sites and add others later when (if?) any other big instance with a fundamentally different part of the API.
You won’t support everything but you can eventually support 99% of where people browse.
