I’m speechless. If you’re actually serious, could you give some examples of the social networking apps/features you are using via the blockchain?

There's a ton of small DAOs, I don't think anyone has scaled up yet. But given you're speechless, hard to assume you're even open to the idea.

I’ve never heard anyone describe a DAO as a social network. Could you explain what that means in relation to more commonly known social networks (FB, Reddit, HN)?

There are many, but the best are smaller for now. Many feel a bit more akin to the early web, on purpose.

I never understand why crypt enthusiasts can’t explain their crypto applications? Everything is DYOR and links to landing pages or white papers.

I agree on this point more generally in the space, but for DAO's a bit different. Clubs are social and often designed to have a barrier to entry, this mirrors the real world. Small communities are higher quality, so this is rational.
