So much of the internet, and software it seems is designed with a total disregard for accessibility, as well as being often designed for cutting/bleeding edge hardware and high bandwidth networks that a large proportion of users doesn't have access to... So many user interfaces are designed for screens of much higher resolutions and don't have a way to scale to smaller screens as well, So many platforms don't give you freedom to interact with their content in a way that is defined by the user, due to the fact that it could negatively impact how ads are served, and how accurate the data mining is, as well as not being able to get metrics on how long users spend on the platform, hampering the profitability... Anyways I think in the long term open source will probably win the long race for dominance in social platforms, but as of now there are lots of issues facing more widespread adoption.
