    Correct me if I’m wrong, but I thought Lemmy had mod logs by default.

    Defederation is the moderation mask you speak of. Beehaw, for example, has the tankie instance blocked.

    I also don’t find the distinction between owner and miderator useful. In the case of decentralized Lemmy instances with less than 1k users, a single owner may act as both moderator and owner.

      Defederation is an incredible extreme. And it should be easily bypassed by the user’s client. It should even be a meaningless action.

      My moderation mask I mean a kind of moderation action log. Your client reads it and applies it as an overlay to hide stuff from your sight.

      If a user’s comment is marked as deleted by the moderator, and you’re subscribed to that moderator mask. Then your client treats it as deleted.

      You can go into they mask and see if you agree with the moderators decision. If you don’t, then subscribe to other moderators.

      The moderators become actors on your behalf that you can override if you don’t mind waiting through the crap yourself.

      You could be subscribed to hundreds of moderators, maybe every user on the fediverse. Your client might only act on a moderation action if say, at least 10 independent users took the same moderation action and established a consensus.
