What happens when community tags get orphaned? Can the tag short name (I.e. a/communismbabble) be reused my multiple communities? Since communities could be subscribe-only, and nobody else would see them unless their subscribed, they could be subscribed via their pubkey and the community 'handle' could be used by many groups. This would avoid people squatting on handles, and if someone dies without adding other moderators/owners, the community can simply move to a new pubkey. The only wrinkle is when a client is subscribed to more than one community with the same handle, but you should already have a UX solution to this for npub/username conflicts

I was thinking the same thing. In the case of using hashtags, there are is currently no moderation, but some ideas: 1. Any user objecting to an post (e.g., misuse of the hashtag, spammy or inappropriate content) could post a β€œmoderation hint" or "comment" event containing metadata that explains their reason for why it is inappropriate and/or a simple up-vote/flag-inappropriate. Relays and client software could then take these moderation hint comments and regular replies into account and filter the content (this might be the challenging part). 2. An LLM running locally on the client could serve as a user-specific moderator. If the user searches for a specific hashtag, the returned results would be moderated by the LLM before being shown to the user. This would allow each user to customize the kind of content they are shown based on personal preferences. For example, a user could set their client to automatically hide content that contains certain trigger words or topics they find distressing. This could potentially be used in combination with 1.

We could have a "member" role. It just feels more complicated. Or Community management clients can do that on the client side. If an author got into the topic 3-4 times already, any new post moves to the top of moderation for approval. Maybe some clients even do that automatically. Who knows. I am sure the owner of the community will move top posters to be moderators as well.
doing #communities like #reddit is just dumb we should have #moderator lists and #tag specific ones #tags are completely open topics, generally replacing subreddits, the moderator lists become your community, ie those lists are composed with like minded people that will #moderate in the way you want, everyone then gets moderation how they want including the 2000 gender people, while anyone can post to the #topic preventing the domination as in reddit by single subreddits #nostr #asknostr

so if someone fills a tag with garbage i would call that #tag misuse, so enter #moderation on that tag or maybe just report the user for spam or tag misuse, and maybe tag misuse #reports hides them from all your tag views yes we can have both and should because the best should win out in open adoption, i have used communities and the approval aspect is quite dumb, there is also lots of dev on communities but not #tags and filters ie including moderation i think filters are core to #nostr, after all a follow feed is just a filter
