I mean isn't an elegant way how to bypass this regulation - teenagers running their own social networks only with their friends? If you will make it P2P nobody except them have control of their data. That sounds like a killer feature.

I wonder if this is just rambling of mine or if somebody will really pull this off.

This isn’t about privacy, it’s about the addictive design of social media.

Part of which is the massive nature of current social media platforms. Having way smaller/localer ones would most certainly also reduce the addictiveness of them.

Or about sharing nasty content which can't be effectively moderated..

Absolutely, that is responsible for teen suicides in my partners hometown.
