Will something be done about moderators owning 50+ magazines/communities and counting? Already seeing power mods migrate from Reddit trying to hoard as many communities as possible.

Do you think they are actively trying to become moderators of those communities or is there a chance they're trying to recreate the subreddits they're accustomed to?
The way that the fediverse works should make it more challenging for someone to squat on communities. There are plenty of instances which means there is plenty of competition. Am I missing something?
Well on Reddit I'm a moderator of one sub purely because I've flown so far under the radar of the other mods with my lack of ambition... So does this mean I deserve the keys to the kingdom now?
If you're concerned, just don't sub to them. Just creating communities in itself shouldn't really be a problem, I'd rather hope for the best than assume that every person making these is a power hungry basement slug.
That's fair but my assessment is rather than enabling that behavior, cut it off at the source by limiting the number of communities to be made per user. Sure, there'll be alt accounts, but it's better than just looking the other way and pulling another Reddit.
