Your post is heavy on shouldness, and light on how to change things you personally don’t like (a lot of people clearly love social media, and, as you said, find their niche, or ten). What alarms me is that you are trying to tell other people how to live their lives, always a huge red flag. If you think you can do better than facebook in meeting and especially shaping people’s needs, then figure out a way to create a platform that can compete. Extra regulations, beyond basic privacy controls already in place, just not really enforced, are also a dangerous idea, again, as you point out.
Let us stay as much a nation of laws, not men, as we can.
This sounds quite US-centric. Maybe a patchwork of nations, groups and subcultures.
In general, your post comes across to me as radicalist, trying to ignore the Chesterton fence without understanding why they keep appearing.
