My idea of an ideal social network: - Only Text. No photos or videos in the feed except those small profile pictures which would serve as icon to identify the person at a glance instead of reading the whole name. - No ASCII graffiti allowed. - No notifications about birthday reminders, page invites, group invites, unsolicited events. - No commercial or political accounts. Social Networking should be about your friends, not what the propaganda backed by big bucks. - No notifications about what your friends liked about your non-friends. - Simple Privacy controls: either something is strictly visible to your friends only, or visible to everyone - no complicated rules which determine something valid for one person and not valid for another, or somehow changes over time. The user may be powered to opt in for some advanced control. - Apps should have limited control about what they can pull from you. The user should be clearly conveyed what data they are giving about themselves and to whom. I just realized that I unwittingly described Facebook of 2007.
