I’ve read through a few of your replies, and they generally contain a “so, …” and a generally inaccurate summary of what the conversation thread is about. I don’t know whether there’s a language barrier here or you’re being deliberately obtuse.
It would appear to be that your desire for a community without moderators is so strong, that a platform like Lemmy is not suitable for what you want, and as such you are likely not going to find the answer you want here and spend your time arguing against the flow.
If your questions are concrete and in the context of Lemmy or the Fediverse more broadly, admins provide the service of paying for and operating the servers in addition to moderation.
If it’s more abstract, i.e. “can people talk to each other over the internet without moderators?” then my experience is that they usually can when the group is small, but things deteriorate is it grows larger. The threshold for where that happens is higher if the group has a purpose or if the people already know each other.
So that’s the indispensable service that admin provides. Childporn filtering.
I didn’t realize it was such a large job. So large that it justifys the presence of a cop in every conversation? I dunno.

Good luck finding what you’re looking for 👍
I notice that you have yet to point out even one such inaccuracy

That sounds right.
So the deterioration needs to be managed.
