Content Moderation
"Rather than optimizing for engagement and then trying to remove bad experiences, we should optimize more precisely for good experiences."
Current social networks don't have great tools for dispute resolution. They're a combination of anarchy (people yelling) and tyranny (arbitrary deplatforming).
An alternative approach is a global moderator hierarchy. In the event of dispute, the lowest common ancestor mediates.

2. Public follow graph + DMs (Twitter + Telegram)
3. Discovery engine to find insightful new voices
