In most of the world, nearly everyone has a smartphone. Within that, there are 2 main options - Apple, or one derived from Google’s Android. Within the latter, you run the stock OS, which effectively requires a Google account, or you can run a custom OS. The custom OS also requires a Google account for anything resembling the usual functionality of a smartphone.
I’m aware that De-Google movements are out there, but that’s why it’s such a big deal. It’s hard to run an Android-based device without a Google account and still have it do what you need/want. And while Lemmy’s user base probably has a higher percentage than average, it’s still going to be a low percentage.
I fully disagree with that statement.

I could totally be wrong, yeah. It was just an assumption I made, but even on Lemmy I spend my time in a pretty niche bubble. Who knows?
