Yes, I know, trolls etc. But such action turns any conversation into a bad joke. And anybody who trusts a moderator is a fool.

Find a better way.

      The instance admin is legally responsible for everything posted on their instance.
      Giving all the control to the users would literally carry the risk of going to prison.

      As a user, you can:

      • Review instance and community rules prior to participating
      • Review the moderator logs to confirm that moderation activities have been in line with the rules
      • If you notice a discrepancy, e.g., over-moderation, you can hold the mods accountable and draw attention to it or simply choose not to engage in that instance or community
      • Host your own instance
      • Create communities in an existing instance or your own instance

      If you host your own instance and communities within that instance, then at that point, you have full control, right? Other instances can de-federate from yours.

        I am aware of that. But still, giving somebody the power to arbitrarily censor and modify our conversation is a fundamentally bad thing.
