Let’s take a trip on DMT. Welcome to the Dank Microwave Taco or DMT for short. Anything and everything goes in here. Be sure to share your experience on DMT with your friends, family and social media. @WiggleHard bans nothing and exiles nobody (Dont doxx wolfballs users, no posting of porn/nudes or foot fetish material unless it involves political scandals, no ads for sex sites or dating sites; do that on your own time, no solicitation for pyramid scams, no posting job advertisements unless from official job sites, no posts supporting pedophilia, not all love is love) also: (we cannot allow violations of the patriot act concerning how we speak, no calls for violence, suggesting you are personally harming someone ect. These things are not free speech protected by law but actually against the law and could get the website shut down.) (no spam posting, especially spam posting of what could be considered symbols of hate) examples: guy posting nazi flag 5 times in one day, guy posting “whitey is the devil over and over, im going to use my best judgement on this one rule)

So does Twitter, YouTube and any other centralized platform. At least with Lemmy it's not all concentrated in one place.
The only way for decentralized platform to truly give power to the users is if every user stands up their own instance, which is unrealistic.
That would work yes but it's not the only solution. You need the user to have complete control of their account not the admin. Nostr works like this. So you can switch backends as easily as you want. The user exist as a private public key pair. You push and pull your content to and from multiple backends rather than to one backend ( that then pushes to other backends in the case of the fediverse. ).
In the fediverse the admin blocks and bans users. In nostr it's more like the users and admins have a more equal amount of power. The user can just listen to another instance.
I'm not familiar with nostr, will look into it.
It's already better than mastodon at being twitter. Just needs better users. But it's atleast a year away from being able to replace Lemmy as a decentralized reddit alternative
