How would simplex even help here? Is the a Lemmy alternative built upon simplex? Or a friendica one?

SimpleX can be self hosted
not sure how this is confusing, simplex is a chat app with privacy as the #1 priority; OP wanted a private alternative to whatsapp, simplex is that alternative.
As in, activitypub is not suited for chatting apps. A decentralized protocol specifically designed for messaging (matrix,xmpp,simplex) would fit better here.
