I'm surprised the none of the things I want are mentioned. here's (some) of my ideas:
1. know who you talk to
if you want to stay anonymous, use an anonymous platform. HOWEVER, that guy you entered a twitter shitstorm with? might as well be some 12 year old, broken english, russian troll. that chick who messaged you? 56 year old chinese gypsy.
2. mark content type
sarcasm is (imo) very important. but in the wrong context, lack of context, it can be horribly confused.
3. exact timestamp
I don't want to see a post is from "few months ago" (hidden, in a small text similar to the background color). I want posts to be color coded by age & type.
4. exact definitions
my language isn't the same as your language. even if we both speak English, there are different meanings to different cultures, regions, etc. if something is ambiguous or unknown, I'd like to get a dictionary definition as reference.
5. I don't care about likes. or views. I want to see views/likes ratio. if a post has 1000 likes is it good? maybe, unless it has 1m impressions. or it's exceptional if it has 2000 impressions. that's a far better measure for quality
and there's more if I just keep thinking about it. probably a lot more
- smegcicle 5y ago1: i can't imagine anyone trying harder at this than facebook is? 2: marking content as sarcasm completely undermines it's impact. 'sarcasm tags' are unutilized due to lack of purpose, not lack of visibility. how does facebook's 'react emoji' functionality not cover this usecase better? 3: you don't want the human-readable age, you want the exact absolute date, but also the age, which you want to be exposed as color..? absolute date is generally easily grabbed with js, but hidden to reduce clutter. 4: a product to put cross-culture communication up front would be an interesting prospect, but i've not seen anything like that, and i'd expect a full team, many revisions, and a patient and involved community to get functionality and ui approaching helpful... 5: you don't want the exact views and like, you want a human-readable measure for quality that you just came up with and can easily do in your head? (vs how you feel about predigested data re #3)
