MODERATORS
 

I created !dull_mens_club@lemmy.world a few months ago and then started seeing contraversies around moderation policies and federation that just don't apply to the type of content on dull mens club so I decided to make an instance solely to host that community.

!dullsters@dullsters.net

I'm not sure if this has happened yet, but I like the idea of having a neutral instance that users can still visit regardless of what happens. There's no user signups, only admin/moderator accounts. Users have to use an account from a federated instance.

considering this and @Die4Ever@programming.dev's comment, could it incentivize certain types of prospective Admins to create community only instances, increasing attraction of more users to lemmy overall but disproportionally burden the user management workload on the traditional user+community instances?

Either way the content will go onto their server because of federation. It eliminates some workload from those admins if the small instance is actively modderating.
