This is an interesting model, and there's nothing stopping someone from starting a social media site that works like this. But that doesn't mean that existing ones should be forced to use this model. Let's try them both (and others) and see which ones work best for their users.
- starik36 4y agoActually this model does exist and is pretty successful. Facebook Groups. The admins of these groups are not employees and have the power to limit whatever, whenever.
- kevincox 4y agoThis is the model that social media had. Facebook, Twitter, Instagram... they all started of just showing you content from people your followed. Or course they now all demand to show you "recommended" content and with that take on the responsibly of how "pleasant" that recommended content is. Where did they do this? I bet few people truly know. My personal guess it's because injected ads and promoted content logged to out of place between your friends posts whereas there is little difference between ads and most popular posts.
