Great to see he's enthusiastic about it, not sure genpop is though.

It’s more like - what if I just posted here on The Verge, and you could follow me on Mastodon natively? That’s way bigger than ICQ, I think.

The idea you could post from your own business/personal/group website and not have to run through social an intermediary that holds you hostage is a killer feature.
