      What point ?

      The point of becoming a moderator that decide what everyone can and can’t say ?

      The point of “making another reddit but I’m /u/spez” ?

        The point of me having my own control over my instance. The bad moderator thing will always be a problem.

          I don’t see how agglomerating vuew of all same name communities for the user impact you as a server owner ?

          You still have totalitarian control over everything happening on your server.

          You can still

          Delete all post and comments

          Change any text in any post or comment even if made by other users and without their notice

          Ban any user

          Ban any community

          Even ban all users and all communities (whilte only model)

            I must’ve read your comment wrong. Sounds like you just want a multi Reddit type feature? I agree that that should be implemented some apps have already did it. I don’t agree that the same word community should be lumped together universally and automatically.

              No multireddit cannot solve this problem.

              They are not a default agglomeration view so they will never make a difference as most users never change their defaults.

              Covered in more details here

              A community cannot escape the stranglehold of moderators with a multireddit, because most users will simply not have it the backup community setup in their multireddit. They will never see dissenters posting in the backuos. And that makes multireddit largely useless

                  It’s an hypothetical community, so they’re hypothetical moderators/owners. I’m not sure how to respond to “who are they”.

                  They’re some bad hombrés…

                    Your argument through all of this is bad moderators controlling the largest communities so I’m wondering how what you’re saying fixes any of that.
