I was promoting Lemmy in the place that I was supposed to.

    Moderation shouldn’t be a thing. I miss Usenet kill files. Let users moderate for themselves.

      That’s called Peer to Peer networks.

      P2P will require users to store the data itself.

      Which means, if images are also allowed, CSAM will be an issue.

      Most “normies” (for lack of a better term) will just delete the app/program if CSAM got on their local copy of the content. Like who wants risking jailtime for social media / forum?

      Brair is a P2P communication app, and its “Forum” feature does not allow images, which I suspect is because the Developer didn’t want CSAM to become a problem, and can’t think of a moderation solution (it currently does not have any moderation tools, the public Briar forums are a true “Free Speech” place, theres nothing to stop hate speech there, even racism, but luckily, Briar is so small/niche that I haven’t see such comments yet)

      So if we want P2P"Reddit-like" platform to share memes, such platforms need a moderation feature, perhaps a group of people appointed to view and mark images as CSAM via consensus voting and prevent it from spreading throught the network.
