    The benefit of the fediverse is that if something like that does turn out to be a problem, the server admin can replace mods or we can use a different instance.

      Honestly I don’t think that’s quite it. Switching to a different instance is no different from switching to a new sub: sometimes it’s just not realistic. What I think the advantage here is is that Reddit is effectively one instance, and they have no interest in doing any kind of community admin. There will be instances like that here too, but it’s not going to be all of them (I suspect not even most)
