Is content moderation a dead end?

Another site with moderated comments is Ars Technica. It works out great for them.

On the other side there is unmoderated Phoronix, which has the worst comment section that I've ever seen.

Is it worse than YouTube comments? I have never looked at it but that has to be something..

YouTube comments are actually pretty good these days, I find.

Most comments on YouTube are vacuous, it's not worth wading through them.

You are right, not worth scrolling down beyond the top handful.

vacuous does not equate to toxic. I would gladly take an internet where the biggest problems on the internet were tired jokes and excessive emoji spam.
