I am suggesting that there would no platform wide moderation, but would instead be things like public block lists that users could voluntarily subscribe to.
IE, on Twitter, anyone could publish a "spam account list" or whatever, and people could choose whatever their preferred block list is.
Or they could choose not to follow any block lists, if they so desire.
Some blocklists might only block spammers, another might block Donald Trump, and another might block anyone who posts any swear words at all, and individual people would choose how they would like to view their content.
