I'm actually afraid the opposite might actually happen.

if users (especially new potential users to the Fediverse.) find that social media requires them to id verifiy most of them will probably just either stick to a narrow smaller few of sites they know people use, or they'l obsolete themselves from the social media aspects of the internet entirely.
