I don't think it can be taken as an assumption that "social systems" in the digital space can exist as a net social positive. The most fundamental problem in all groups is that 'well received' messages are far different than 'good' messages. And the feedback and filtering mechanisms in all current digital social systems strongly incentivize the former over the latter. And I don't think there's any particularly good way to solve this. Even in real life large purposeless gatherings of mostly bored people rarely leads to desirable things.
