Moderators protect us from the worst of the internet. That comes at huge personal cost. (theconversation.com)

Don't like moderators? Fine, try to host your own instance and your own communities. You'll find quickly that it turns to shit because it's actually pretty hard to do well.

Not really. You'll just always have to deal with people who hate you because they wanna break the rules and hate facing the consequences. That isn't hard. It's just annoying.

It especially wouldn't be hard if you hate "censorship" and let everyone just say whatever they want, even if they're bigoted pieces of shit and posting CSAM. You literally just do nothing. Doing nothing is easy!
