Or you know, we could plant trees…the original carbon capture device.

Ask yourself if you’ve ever met a socially well adjusted human who is a long term moderator.

I’ve met plenty of decent people who have moderated for a time (at the very beginning of a community for example) or tried it and then walked away.

But never someone who does it for years on end.

I assume it’s because long term mods seek power they lack in their own lives because of poor social adjustment but happy to read a paper on this.

I would love a platform that has collective community moderation through content flagging and voting which does away the need for mods.
