This is how content moderation works on #hive, the first blockchain-based, decentralized social media:

Content moderation on Hive is done on different levels.

Individually via following and muting accounts. Most decentralized approach. Be your own algorithm. Similar to Nostr.

Then there are also subbreddit-like "communities" with moderators and admins. semi-decentralized. Similar to Reddit.

Rewards are distributed with up and downvotes, only after 7 days upvotes become irreversible.

One big account, hive watchers, enforces some anti reward abuse policy, but the content is still stored immutably on a blockchain.

In extreme cases, illegal content is filtered at the front-end level. Several front-ends.

Downvotes are quite controversial but help minimize spam, plagiarized content, account farming etc.

Do you have an opinion on #hive vs #nostr ? I ask because hive has been around longer yet it is my impression nostr is making more waves. What do you think?
