I wrote a blog post about this a while ago if you're interested:

https://yoyo-code.com/how-to-build-better-social-media/

I think it's difficult but very interesting problem. There are some interesting attempts, like Maven, and a bunch of individually working aspects of existing platforms, but so far nothing seems to be clearly a win overall in my opinion.

Thanks, I was interested and enjoyed you blog post! It's definitely complex- I really liked your observation that even on the same platform (say youtube comments) the quality of interactions can vary hugely based on the amount of traction something gains.
