A thought on "moderation bubbles"
A plurality of contentiously incompatible but independent moderation "spaces" ... is the only way in which the internet is good at digesting substantial and contentious topics.
* conversations on the internet generally suck.
* On any contentious front, strong moderation can run the risk of "echo chambers".
* For those willing to survey multiple "bubbles", an interconnected plurality provides a de facto dialectics.
Thus federation for the win!

Probably not original at all. But I suspect there's something to framing it around "improving the quality of internet discourse" through the emergent dynamics of a federation ... especially in comparison to monolithic big-social.It also repositions the internet as a broader resource to be used effectively.
And instills independent and contentiously incompatible instances along with widely connected federation as desirable positives for social media and the internet in general.
