From what I have seen, I think that Wikimedia Space may be good for some use cases, but it's not a substitute for Meta and for many existing public communications channels. One use case for Space that does make sense to me is that people might want to use it for private group communications. However, the platform is under WMF's control, community governance appears to be nearly nonexistent, public interest appears to be low at this time, and I think that Space fragments discussions onto yet another platform.
