Personally I think not having karma limits is nice currently! I understand why they were used but grinding karma as a lurker on reddit was frustrating.

Fear of dropping the hammer down on bad actors.

And power mods too. No point moving to the Fediverse just to have all the content moderated and censored by 8 or 10 power trippy losers.

That's a good thing about Fediverse. Anyone can create their own instance and recreate the board/community/magazine there. Nobody needs to be under the thumb of some sore mod.
We just need a well maintained core and installer so anyone, anywhere can get an instance going.

That's how I understand it anyway, please correct me if I'm wrong.
