Social media may be ‘fundamentally at odds’ with science

[Vestige]

Are there any social media platforms out there that uses no algorithms and which also has a good proportion of the population participating? I would like to explore these.

I am aware of a few platforms in development which operate or intend to operate with respect to principles of decentralization, people-empowering, and community-building.  I'm not sure the rules allow for direct referrals of companies, but I would be happy to share one such platform with which I am familiar in a private message, upon request.

I do not see any issues sharing the links right here. This thread is in "Science & Technology" after all.

Which one would have the most people already and might be the easiest to use?

Thanks !

I would tentatively recommend the platform known as Blacklight Media Technologies, or simply Blacklight. I am not aware of the precise number of people using the platform, but I had been in contact with and briefly collaborated with the original developers when the design for the platform was still incipient.
