This seems obvious to everyone else, but not to me. Why would we want to do that instead of just dealing with them one by one when needed or just individually blocking communities/users?

I'm extremely uncomfortable with an authority deciding for me what I may see in my feed and what not.

Authority deciding what you see? You mean like Reddit does? With Lemmy you can always change servers, heck, even set up your own server with your own rules.

Yes, exactly like Reddit does. How does a federated system manage when everyone is required to run their own server to avoid censorship?

Not everyone is required to do so. You just need to find a server that aligns with your values. Communities always censor content, one way or another. Call it moderation. Otherwise, you end up a piling piece of burning trash.
