No I think improved moderation is the last thing we need. We need moderation, but moderation is supposed to be an in the background thing, not this end all be all dictatorship bullshit, submit or watch me ban you and censor you bullshit, like we saw Reddit turn into. I mean exhibit A, look how that's turning out for them.

And the beauty of federation is that you can choose a instance of your liking.

I'm going to have to concur with this. I attempted to contribute to a number of subreddits over the past few years; some of my posts went up and got lots of up votes, so yay. On the other hand, posts in some other subs would immediately get rejected, and once I even got temporarily banned for my post. I had read and followed the sub rules to the best of my ability. I was left feeling like maybe the mods there just didn't like my sense of humor, or something... it was really weird.

So yeah... to take a slight twist on an old saying: everything in moderation -- including moderation.
