I think it is less that, and more that establishing a large enough body of experts requires a very large audience to pull from, and on top of that it took years, and lots of work, to get them established, and working correctly, so it will be very difficult to move.
It isn’t though. The mod tools for lemmy are super primitive compared to the moderation tool suites that exist for reddit. These subs live because they have these in-depth mod tools. Tight, on point, moderation is key to keeping these places one topic, and of quality. Also, we don’t have the user base. While I guarantee there are a decent amount of subject experts on lemmy, I have seen them myself, you need enough to be posting/dealing with posts multiple times a day, in any given subject. So, not only do you have to have a body of expertise large enough to cover the topics, and rate of posts, you have to keep in mind these people also have to want to do this. Most people like that don’t want to add that amount of extra work, and stress, to their lives.
