Recently I wrote about what the social apps of the future might look like architecturally, e.g. hallucinated servers paired with onchain features. But what should a social app actually feel like?

Frankly, I think a great one should be centered around the delight of expression; it should firstly be a hotbed for creativity, a place where interesting people and experiences cross-pollinate and exciting, unexpected things happen accordingly.

Maybe to an extent Twitter had this atmosphere years back, but that Twitter is dead. The reality is the bloodthirst for growth and monetization and funneling users into certain behaviors has drained much of the joy out of social media's reigning giants.
