A reputation/trustworthiness rating for instances might be helpful too, something akin to karma but for the instance as a whole. More vulnerable communities would be able to set a minimum trust requirement for unapproved participation.
I like that idea. It would be good to put numbers on positive community traits like trust, helpfulness, politeness, inclusiveness, innovation, etc. so that amoral analysts have something more to go on than Nusers, connections, clicks and replies when deciding what/how to monetize things. A bit like biodiversity protection...or a freedom index or HDI.
