Hello, it appears you've never even ran the most basic internet platform before in your life.

Simply put you have to ask the most important questions first, then build an app backwards from that

1) How will it be paid for

2) How will it be moderated.

So, you've already failed number one. You have no means to pay for it.

Then you failed number two. If it gains even a modicum of popularity it will be completely and totally over ran with spam.

I agree it's unlikely to succeed, but I find thinking about our problems and trying to fix them much more admirable & interesting than just rolling over and accepting things as they are. You can't improve things if you never even try.
