    Sounds you would still have admins, just with extra steps and extra work.

    There’s tools to automate the process.

    Oh, yeah, because automated tools to recognize illegal content work so well. (/s. For real, there are reasons why computer science experts, privacy experts and civil rights experts are pretty much united against such tools. If you want to know more, look up the resistance against EU proposals for Clients Side Scanning and such.)

    Your ideas would not work in reality without open up.platforms for all the things we do not want.

    My instance is a pretty big one and is defederated from other major ones

    Which ones? I looked through some major instances’ lists of blocked instances and sh.itjust.works isn’t on any.

      You would have sys admins but no admins that could do anything to users themselves. Which I had already made very clear.

      The automated tools are what current admins use to clean up their servers because users keep uploading illegal content to Lemmy even with the current system. I already mentioned that we well. Unless you somehow believe that the admins currently check every single post being made on their instance or something?

      Here’s a tool to check federation status: https://federation-checker.vercel.app/

      Your instance is defederated from pretty big ones as well.

      Why would users want someone with the power to just wipe their account from existence and the ability to decide what their experience will be in their place? That’s just Reddit again but with even more admins, nothing was solved. My solution involves sys admins that are there to make sure their servers work and that delete illegal stuff from them and that’s it. They have no more power over the user experience than AWS sys admins have power over the user experience on Reddit, because, once again, the goal is to decentralize the back-end independently from the front-end.

        Which one is the big one? I’ve never heard of any so I don’t know which ones are the supposed big ones. Why are you so oddly unspecific about this despite bring repeatedly asked for specifics?

        About the rest: how would you make sure illegal content gets removed? These automated tools don’t work well enough, evidenced by that I have seen CSAM on meme communities every now and then. How do you take care of users who repeatedly upload illegal content? If an AWS server admin needs to delete some content on reddit, they can’t do that targeted enough, they’d have to wipe reddit off their servers.

        Also, the main issue with being banned for nothing are powertripping mods. Mods that usually so not only moderaten one but many communities. That’s completely unaddressed in your model, too. You’re focusing on the wrong issues and in the process make shit harder for everyone willing to contribute. At the moment, if you get banned for allegedly wrong reasons. If you get banned from.multiple instances, the problem is you, not supposed powertripping admins. Admins are a necessity.

        And to be honest, I am quite tired of your BS. I’m out.
