Nobody is going to come here if all their news, info, contacts, and digital life is on the other platforms.

Look at the original version of reddit and how insanely popular it became because people could simply communicate anonymously without the personal aspects of social media. To view and use old reddit replace www with old , https://old.reddit.com . Because of this simple text and image forum we were able to create groups with some of the best conversations on the internet and reddit grew and grew until they sold it. The better option would have been to make it decentralized and more democratic. They then created the much less useful reddit 2.0 and placed it on top of old reddit and combined with censorship they tamed what was a very prominent force on the internet to communicate about any topic.

The main issue seems to be , How do we develop a better communication system without a better communication system to communicate about the development?
