I forsee in the future federation boards, like servers that work together to vote on good/bad actors/instances and from those other instances could subscribe to their moderation. Still open moderation, you can still set up an instance that doesn't adhere to group A or group B's mod lists, but for the vast majority of people you could have a good experience.
For example, dunno how many saw but had to remove an anti-LGTBQ post in a LGTBQ community today. I'm sure I'm not the only mod who removed that from their instance today, it'd be great if there was a way other instance admins could share that and "team up" with moderation.
Like internet countries. Choose a virtual citizenship, vote for your moderator and wait to be disappointed
Poop ~~poop~~
less like countries, but I would view that more like the federation UN, with each instance getting a vote and a majority passes. You're still in charge of your country, but you could say "I like how this group moderates, I'm going to auto apply moderation from them on here", maybe you could choose which communities are automoderated too. If I ever started disagreeing with that group I could unsubscribe and subscribe to a different group's.
For example, the post I mentioned was not in a community that I host, but for my users I had to remove it too. Would just be nice to say "whoever gets there first can remove it"
