The culture of…having admins to maintain our servers? Dawg just make your own instance then, problem solved. Why is this even up for discussion? The whole point of the fediverse is you can set up your own server and connect with others under your own rules. If you want a mod-free space, you can literally make that.
If you believe in unmoderated spaces that much to argue about it, but aren’t actually willing to make it yourself when it’s simple enough to do so, you’re just another social media agitator wasting time.
If you can write an automated filter to block CSAM then Apple, Meta, Alphabet and others would happily shovel billions at you. Blocking CSAM is a constant and highly expensive job… and when they fuck up it’s a PR shit storm.
Personal cp filtering automation and a shared blacklist. That would take care of the problem. No moderator required.
It is illegal in most countries to host child sexual abuse material.
Oh just those, eh?
Just goes to show how little idea you have how difficult this problem is.
This is starting to sound like, “we need constant control and surveillance to protect us from the big bad”.
You know, for the children.
Mate, if you don’t like the way we run things, go somewhere else. You’re not forced to be here.
But you see my point, right?
Of course I see your point you’re trying to make , but I also think you’re naive and don’t understand the repercussions of what you’re suggesting
As I see it, it’s just a question of whether personal tools (filters etc) can manage the conversation as well as central authority (admin, moderator).
Speaking from extensive experience, they cannot and most people rely on us to handle it for them.
I need to find a lemmy server where such technologies are tested and developed.
Bro is talking smack to their own instance host 💀
I’m talking smack to the whole culture, actually.

Do you think we need moderators to manage our conversations for us? I mean, in your opinion, is it an unavoidable necessity?
It’s ok, I don’t mind people challenging me.
And you are magnanimous for doing so. If someone came into my house and tried to dictate their rules to me, I’d be fuming.
This is why I’m not a mod 🤡

Maybe keeping it off the network is a lost cause. If we each block it with personal filtering then that changes the face of the issue.
