Dunno, reddit does a pretty good job at community moderation. It’s why we can do things like add site:reddit.com in google and find useful information.

We’ve got lots of flamewars online, and it’s too easy to get in an argument. Some tools which reduce those and separate people are good. With reddit if you don’t like a subredit’s moderation you can make a new one.

For example, there’s a meth users subreddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/meth/

And then there are meth users who are upset about the woke rules imposed by the meth users subreddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/meth/

So they created anti-woke subreddit… i can’t find the link right now… but it exists, you can talk about your meth use without all that being nice to each other stuff.

In Nostr it’s easier because you don’t have to rebuild a community from scratch you can effectively fork a community if you want, taking over followers.

One big problem with subreddits are that the mods are chosen by existing mods or the platform when they don’t want the mods to continue. Ideally there’d be a democratic process by which subreddit members could vote on both mods and policy.
