Maybe low traction is a good thing. We don’t need social media to be an all consuming addictive mega platform.

I could have agreed if the high traction ones that do all the bad things didn’t exist.

		We've come full circle to banning advertising. It seems like we have good reason to believe that people will create the infrastructure for the communities that they _want_ to exist and fund them. So just banning advertising will probably be fine. Worst case scenario, we gradually loosen the ban. The advertising hellscape will grow back immediately, nothing of value will be lost.
