[Posted to Typed.art]:
What if we - not a specific "we," but a collective "we" - built our OWN social media system, not for commercial use or profit but as a means of connecting, sharing information and creative works and memes and photos and media and videos, with direct messaging and all the bells & whistles... No extra charge! An online HUB for US!
First question: Is it necessary to BUILD this system, or is there an existing framework that already includes all of the desired features but with none of the drawbacks??? (Ie: censorship, algorithmic interference, advertising nightmares, survalence, data mining, excessive costs, or unethical activities from owners or devs, etc....)
Second question: Is a walled garden the only way to protect this type of system?
Start from scratch and own the entire system ourselves, or find an existing system and take it over?
