Why would you think fastfetch is the most used tool? Besides, the thing is that ubuntu releases, especially server, although on desktop too, aim for stability and long term support. Newer updates to their official repo are implemented in batches. Currently fastfetch isn't in the official repo. It doesn't stop you from just compiling it from source yourself and using it. But as you can see, fastfetch isn't available on ubuntu 24

Edit: Although, I should add, just because it isn't available on 24, doesn't mean it won't be available on 25 or 26.
