Its OK for Lemmy to be a little rough around the edges. Its about the people who are here.

Is there a solution to this issue?
Ultimately you need some kind of mods.
If people recognize the problem, it can be more robust like our legal systems. Maybe the federated nature of the system could also work towards one.
I hang out in a large and tightly moderated discord. Its all very public, logged, tracked, and mods make just sbout every decision as a team. Best of all, most warnings fall off after 6 month. Youre forgiven over time. Fuck yeah, I think federation could offer us some incredible moderation paradigms. We aren't the first to suggest Lemmy lacks moderation tools, of course.
The solution is to read a community for a bit before commenting, or especially before posting. Learn what it allows, what it promotes, keep away from those communities you disagree with
