    I somewhat agree, but I do think there needs to be some form of moderation.

    I’m interested in individual-directed moderation, where you can pick your own moderators and have your feed be altered based on how people you trust have moderated content. My issue with moderators isn’t moderation itself, but with biases that I disagree with. If I could swap the moderators of my favorite communities, I think I would have a better overall experience.

      Yes, moderation filtering as a subscription service.

      Crowd sourced moderation.

      Raw feed always available on my device, I get the last word at all time on my moderation filters and content discovery algorithm,

      offline, on device and nobody else ever knows what my choices are.

      That’s the absolute bare minimum that I would find tolerable.

        Insert family guy meme when he walks out of the stem cell clinic, “why aren’t we funding this?!?!”

        As I said in my higher comment, I’d pay for this type of elevated privlege option to see what is being moderated.

        Yup, that’s my dream too. I’ve started working on something like that, but it’s far from production quality. I hope someone beats me to it, because I haven’t been making near enough progress.

      I agree. I wish there was a way that moderating existed but you could have the option to see what is being moderated. Fuck I’d even pay premium for that type of elevated privilege option.

        A lot of the removed content appears on instances’ mod logs, is that not meeting what you want?

            I had the same feeling when I saw that, it’s good to have it available. One caveat is I think the instance admins can mess with the database to hide things, but my understanding is a typical mod cannot.

          It’s annoying to find something in the mod log. I’ve looked for my own removed posts (I pissed off a mod without actually breaking any rules, and they temp banned me), and it was a lot more effort than necessary.

          What I’d really like is to see all of the removed content, and selectively have content removed by people I trust instead of the actual moderation team.

            I do kinda prefer that idea, or rather, I’ve considered something similar from the perspective of positive ratings. I’d like a way to prioritize content by heavily weighting upvotes from people who I’ve liked interacting with.
