I play Blood Bowl, both in virtually and as the little miniature game, and since every Danish person in the world of Denmark is basically on Facebook and nowhere else, it’s been the primary platform for coordinating leagues and tournaments for the past many years. The platform has gotten so bad at it though, that there are serious thoughts about moving somewhere else, the issue being that everyone is on Facebook and nowhere else.

Maybe you’re going to be correct, but I think that these closed platforms are all going to do what Facebook has and slowly become places that a lot of their users no longer like. In that environment I think someone is going to come a long with a decentralised form of social media the way e-mail or a phone works that is easy enough to connect through that everyone in Denmark is going to be on that and not everywhere else.

I think the only reason it doesn’t exists yet is because you sort or needed a world where GitHub pages, and Dropbox, and so on figured out a way to sell their platform IRON through the use of open APIs. I think it’s coming though.
