There was an interesting decentralized project that I found out about here on hn that has an interesting solution to that.
It's called Aether, and it only supports text. Each node stores 6 months of all posts. Every person votes for their own moderators of communities so you can basically choose your own moderation filter that you get.
I didn't personally like the idea that it has amnesia after 6 months, but surely eventually clients would support saving your own threads to keep locally.
So you could subscribe to your own trusted adblocking/flagging list.
