    Sounds you would still have admins, just with extra steps and extra work.

    There’s tools to automate the process.

    Oh, yeah, because automated tools to recognize illegal content work so well. (/s. For real, there are reasons why computer science experts, privacy experts and civil rights experts are pretty much united against such tools. If you want to know more, look up the resistance against EU proposals for Clients Side Scanning and such.)

    Your ideas would not work in reality without open up.platforms for all the things we do not want.

    My instance is a pretty big one and is defederated from other major ones

    Which ones? I looked through some major instances’ lists of blocked instances and sh.itjust.works isn’t on any.

      You would have sys admins but no admins that could do anything to users themselves. Which I had already made very clear.

      The automated tools are what current admins use to clean up their servers because users keep uploading illegal content to Lemmy even with the current system. I already mentioned that we well. Unless you somehow believe that the admins currently check every single post being made on their instance or something?

      Here’s a tool to check federation status: https://federation-checker.vercel.app/

      Your instance is defederated from pretty big ones as well.

      Why would users want someone with the power to just wipe their account from existence and the ability to decide what their experience will be in their place? That’s just Reddit again but with even more admins, nothing was solved. My solution involves sys admins that are there to make sure their servers work and that delete illegal stuff from them and that’s it. They have no more power over the user experience than AWS sys admins have power over the user experience on Reddit, because, once again, the goal is to decentralize the back-end independently from the front-end.
