I'm envisioning a hypothetical future where, alongside competing with platforms like Reddit/Twitter/Instagram/etc, federated platforms compete with retail or service-providing platforms like Amazon, Uber, Fiverr, Airbnb, etc, platforms that primarily just serve to connect users to other users and handle transactions between them. Is this future possible or desirable?
