The problem:
The current land of social media Apps are creating a bubble. You get information about areas that you are already aware of, or that confirm biases that you already have. Its easy to think we are connected even tho we are only seeing what an algorithm tells us.
The current alternative is not better. Without AI algorithms or in case of Tiktok real people generating what lands in our feed and what not we would end up with more information than one person alone can process. Information that is not even relevant or holds a connection to our lives most of the times.
The Solution: Reach
A location based social media feed that is mostly text based but with the ability to add links and potentially images similar to Reddit. The viewers are able with an easy UI to select the relevance of a post (Helpful, Kind, Funny, Effort, Productive discussion, Article has good sources, Unique etc.) or how the topic is irrelevant (Hatefull, Spam, False Claims, Lack of proof, Hidden self advertisement etc.)
Posts start a fixed local radius of people that can see the post. The more people positively vote for the post or interact in a positive way, the bigger the radius of people that can see the post grows.
Every post has a chance of going viral if it is perceived as valuable by the users.
Aside from a location based feed a topic based feed like in Reddit is also possible alongside this. This feed limits the information to information about a certain topic while still keeping the value based vitality level in mind.
Who

Additional Problems this could help with
- Valuable posts (news, discussions, humor etc) have a more natural chance of going viral, even beyond the own circles)
- Our world is getting more and more global while local communities struggle to grow
- Fake news (at lease with lack of prrof) has a chance of beeing rooted out due community based moderation beeing a fundamental part of the app.
- Content creator have a local and quick way to get feedback on their posts, and a chance of Virality if the content is high quality.
