It would be better to analyze what is broken about the current platforms before thinking about the ideal one. Current platforms are broken because they're centralized and motivated by profit. This means the mechanics of the platforms are designed to maximize profits at the expense of everything else. So the ideal platform must be a non-profit. If the new platform is still a business that must make money for its shareholders then it will inevitably end up in the same place as Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram full of political grifters and scam artists. Elon keeps saying that his goal is to make Twitter the source of truthful information but it's pretty obvious that the biggest cheerleaders on Twitter are not interested in truth, they're mostly interested in increasing their clout among the Twitterati. I guess that's another thing every good social media platform should try to avoid, constant navel gazing and meta-analysis of the platform itself because the goal should be to help people discover useful information instead of gaining followers and clout by meta-analysis of what is happening on the platform itself.
