Idea: a social network that *requires* at least 2000 character posts.
The discourse slowly becomes old school postal correspondence.
People start building up an erudite vocabulary, studying yellowed missives from the 18th century for ideas.
Every post begins with "To Whom It May Concern" and ends with "Your Eternal Friend" and a half dozen postscripts.

We could call it Snail Mail

Oh, another tip for new Mastodon users. There is no global search, outside of users or hashtags. That means you can criticise and curse things using their true name without accidentally summoning a group of sealions.

"Academic studies and countless anecdotes make it clear that being interrupted, talked over, shut down or penalized for speaking out is nearly a universal experience for women when they are outnumbered by men."
