Possibly limited federation, some listing of real identities, a limit to the number of contacts, offset by some aggregation of topics within an identifiable community - the school, or the village for instance.

I like the sound of a form of social media that has no anonymity (but only for those in power such as mods and admins, anonymity being a proven handicap that levels the playing field for younger people) and integrates directly with a real community. No matter what we do, it’s important to remember that we’re tinkering with the actual fabric of society, and the more we try to control and limit people, the weaker that fabric will become. Better moderation and more oversight of people in positions of power is always going to be preferable to limiting expression and demanding more from the most vulnerable people in society.
