    If you could take your favorite elements from various social media platforms to create the ideal space, what would it be like?

    It'd look like the Fediverse with a billion dollars additional R&D budget.

      A perfected version of lemmy. With the option to follow individual user and get notified to every new post or comment they make, additionally the selection of this notification system with manual control. And, a better client hosting app for Lemmy itself. Every Lemmy hosting app I checked so far have at least one buggy optimization disadvantage/problem.

          It would kick me out for the next 4 hours after viewing n amounts of posts. No way to change that. You set it once and never again. No upvotes, likes or hearts either. And fucking encrypted messaging.

            There must be some reason why private messaging on this platform is unencrypted. Maybe it's required by law in some countries, or it's too difficult to implement.

              One change I would make is to hide up- and downvotes for all users but keep the voting feature for post sorting. Ideally there would also be a powerful, probably AI powered content filter that you could tell what you don't want to see instead of just bluntly blocking it based on community/user/keyword.

                    Like if the original okCupid team had diversified into general online social interactions instead of selling to the dating monopoly. The platform tries to learn about you, not so that it can match you with advertizers, but so that it can try to give you meaningful social interactions with human beings.

                      Like lemmy but we should focus on quality, not quantity. (which we already partly do)

                        Lemmy is not really focused on DMs anyways. DMs are mostly used to exchange matrix chat accounts or other means of communication. So, encryption wouldn't make that much difference, really.

                          i mean hiding votes for yourself sounds like a client-side thing. if you want to block it for everyone, lemmy already can do that, however you need to configure the server/community appropriately. so, you'd have to make your own server and configure that to not show votes. i think lemmy.blahaj.zone already disables downvotes.

                            A local pub.

                            But cheap enough that people can hang out there for an hour or two most days without going broke.

                            Theres something to be said for the real world.

                            i think a big reason why that doesn't exist is because most people are continuously exhausted from work, so they don't have energy to bring to the bar anyways.

                            We would first have to have an end to full-time employment (i.e. end of economic growth combined with implementing UBI) before we could have free time and energy to dedicate to bars again, i guess.

                              Eh. I just deal with enough asshats IRL that I don't need them bothering me when I'm relaxing at home. It's why I enjoy Bluesky's blocklist feature.

                                I would actually say it's real estate costs that prevent this over here. Those keep business prices up and also make people have to work more.

                                    None really. I only use them as a way to stay in contact with people who I won't see regularly. That aspect is nice as all lives change and diverge but the whole corpo crap makes it meh.

                                        A requirement to establish intellectual capability and that would determine user privileges.
