Blacklists make sense for news feeds, but whitelists seem more useful for media consumption.

The way Minds works is if you miscategorize offensive content as family friendly too many times then your whole account is made NSFW. Offensive videos are not censored, but you have to opt-in to seeing them. The choice is always with the user what type of content they want to see.
In the past, most USENET was small enough that people maintained their own individual blocklists of bad actors and ignored them. Today, we crowdsource a personal blocklist with EasyList and other lists that users opt into.
The only centralized or automated moderation any media needs is to stop bots and spam. If you went to opentube and you had the option to view only "family friendly" videos then even sensitive people could use the site without being offended.
