Reddit stock tumbles the most on record as lack of new AI deals, US daily users metric disappoints

This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Happy to see it. I would love a new platform to show up and replace reddit. I dont think its going to be Lemmy but something where the creators actually care about great discussions rather than money.
The challenge is moderation of course.
I think at least for the bigger and for the less niche communities moderation needs to be democratic.
The upvote brought democracy to content ranking. It's possible to bring democracy to moderation.
And this will still leave the option of private despotic moderation available. Both styles of moderation can act as a check on each other. The same community can be reproduced twice, with private and with democratic moderation. Then if the tyrants are out of control you can escape to a democratically managed community. And if the so called "mob" is out of control and the privately moderated space is nicer, you can escape there. The whole system will eventuanly self-regulate to a nice daily hum.
