We don't need large scale social networks in the first place. The Discord model of small communities is the way forward. Keep groups small enough for natural human social rules to apply. Slows down global dissemination of information for sure, but that's what the news is for, and anything important will eventually travel between communities anyway.
Yep. Once a system gets too large, its starts to break down and everything you do to make work ends up centralizing the process just like in real life. If you want things to work you keep it small and distributed.
