Because some of us remember how the internet was without moderators, and how it went to shit early 2000's when "everyone" started using it.
20-25 years ago mods were rarely needed beyond booting a couple of spammers and getting rid of the occasional goatse and tubgirl. Now platform-wide efforts are needed to combat csam and gore.
There has to be an algorithm. A crowdsourced wisdom. Individuals can't be trusted. From spez to the very mods here.
Whenever I hear someone suggest "an algorithm" without elaborating further, I'm usually correct in presuming that it makes as much sense as "a wizard will use magic". The other times it's usually someone suggesting blockchain. Sometimes it's both.
Or, hear me out, collaboration across networks. That's what lemmy does. And it's nothing new.
I offered an alg up there in the thread. Browse for 1.5 seconds, you'll find it.
And I saw it. What's your fix for botnets and brigading?

well I offered one up there in the thread.
but there’s no individual mods here …
