> I hope to be wrong about this, but people simply to not want to put this much effort into online communities. Users love putting enormous amounts of effort into building functional, healthy communities online. What was that Reddit spectacle where r/ThanosDidNothingWrong "banned" half the users? That's a perfect example of how sophisticated a userbase can get-- using a feature of a service in a clever and unexpected way but without causing harm to the users or the system. If it seems like users don't want to do that kind of work on a particular social network, it's probably a symptom that something fundamental isn't working in the software. Users will do creative things on services that give them the freedom to do it. But they can't and won't fix design issues to make the service usable in the first place.
