Perfect, and then the mods will lock it down and move to an instance I dislike.

When you create a community, you are the mod of the community you created, and you can choose to move or stay. So I don't know which mods you are talking about.

One strength of the Fediverse is indeed that the community belongs to the users.

Yes, by being able to leave and create your own community. You can even run your own instance, giving you total control over everything on it.

Sorry, let me rephrase it: "Perfect, and then I will lock it down and move it to an instance a majority of the community members dislike."

If you want to do this, do it, but then you have no right to criticize.

You can also set your community rules to something like "Big decisions affecting the whole community must be backed by a public vote." This is what I mean by making the place entirely your own.
