Having been part of the email ecosystem where well established spam filtering and reputation management systems have been in place for years, I've found it interesting how close these more recent conversations are to those we've had around email messaging abuse.

> Thus, as soon as a censorship-resistant social network becomes sufficiently popular, I expect that it will be filled with messages from spammers, neo-nazis, and child pornographers (or any other type of content that you consider despicable).

Unfortunately, I agree this is likely the case, and also agree with many of the other points where there's unlikely to be an agreed upon approach at scale.

I feel the two most important aspects of any moderation are transparency and consistency. I'd always like to know what community I'm joining.

We'll likely see more niche communities continue to pop up on centralized and decentralized networks where the moderation, content and community can be more tailored to their own expectations.
