Funnily enough, it was not a focus for the United Federation of Planets, seeing as having over 100 major inhabited worlds the number of colonies was relatively small and the Starfleet numbers and ships were very small.
We just see the show’s title and that is is always from the perspective of Starfleet members.
It would be assuming we do reach post scarcity for all essential goods. There’s more than enough bored people right now that would throw away the rest of their lifespan for a few months in space to fill a intra galactic space exploration organization; give those bored people all the free education they can handle and you have a successful star fleet.
I would make the argument that even under perfectly executed communism space travel is unlikely to end up being the focus

I always felt like I was born too early for Starfleet.
I seriously would offer my life to this end; exploring space like Archer might have done.
But then you wisely decided to shut your dirty mouth.
