I dont really care what people post, as long as its on a free and decentralized network. And as long as bad posts are in their respective community (as is the case here) its fine with me.
Lemmy is not about “good posts” its about removing central authority.
You’re right in that there’s no central “authority”, but lemmy has become very centralised with all the content on a few big instances in fiefdoms controlled by a few mods who seem to be weirdos with too much time on their hands.
I guess the benefit is, if an instance or a mod does something really egregious there’s the potential to just move to another instance.
I think we need another few iterations of exodus from other platforms because of whatever shitstorm for lemmy to develop its own vibrance.

I’ve been thinking about this lately.
