One major issue with social media is that it operates on a first come, first served basis. This essentially rules out the possibility of well-considered, well-researched content being successful.

Most social media is the wrong format for long-term discussion. Whatever you post, it will soon be replaced by something newer.

Consumers just want that quick dopamine hit every time they open the app.

There are still quite a few phpBB-style bulletin boards out there with threads that survive for years. I think that’s the social media you’re looking for.
