All true. However, I am thinking that Social Media is different than a news web site (say, The Guardian) or a broadcasting site (such as my blogs) in general. With the risk of sounding flippant: if broadcasting without interaction is what someone is wishing for there’s a multitude of solutions out there.
To your point though: I have been thinking more than once here in the Fediverse that some people/groups here probably *would* be better served running their own community-forum(s) or similar, instead of trying to shape a social media platform, and all its users, in to a forum.
Having said all of that: we don’t *have* to implement all the bad solutions out there in this “new” Fediverse. We *could* focus on doing the bad things correctly instead, instead of immediately mirroring all the bad things from everywhere else.
