I always thought there was a space for a social media that has upvotes and followers and all that, with the intention of creating echo chambers and segregating users into their own groups and that sort of thing, but with the ability for anyone to go on a 'holiday' into the other echo chambers, to see what those other users experience.

Likes are not one dimensional. Likes flow from one person to another. If you like someones posts, you're more likely to enjoy the things they like. A network of endorsement emerges and the subgroups can become clear.
