The extreme ends of content moderation is Echo Chambers or Nazi Bars
At least echo chamber can be kind of solved. One example is Reddit’s suggestion feature. The Feddiverse could have something like Last.fm for communities, where it suggests to you things other people have looked into, but you haven’t, this broadening the chamber.
Once your community is a Nazi bar, you can get rid of the Nazis, but the regular people won’t come back by that point.
I hadn’t thought about this, it’s a good point. Thank you for broadening my perspective
I wonder how Lemmy can avoid becoming an echo chamber
