If you could take the best of FB, Linked In, instagram, or other site what would you take?

As these sites / services evolved I've found they are becoming more unless and loaded with bloat and complicated settings.

For example I liked the early days of facebook and its simplicity. I also liked instagram without all the jazz that it has now. And linked in, well I never really used it but I'm sure there is something that really worked at first but slowly was degraded from scope creep.

FB - Simple wall / status / messages / Closed community

IG - Take a photo / tag / post

LI - ?

FB - Groups. It's a great way to connect with your local communities and find people with common interests

IG - Stories. It's a great way to stay up to date with friends

LI - Posts and Messages. LI's limited messaging feature is actually great for sending/receiving opportunities without too much spam.
