We used to receive more real e-mails than SPAM e-mails.

Nobody needed a pseudonym back then.
You could just speak your mind openly and always write your real name to it, and it was THE NORMAL thing to do.
And yes of course we all had some f*ing "controversial" opinions back then. It was our youth after all :-) No holding back with what you would probably call unbearable extremes nowadays. And then nobody needed to do any canceling or banning or crushing our skulls....
every meta domain, if you want to be extreme
I wouldn't call that extreme, because it's the only option that works.
This isn't a platform issue. The issue existed since the dawn of time. It's a human issue. People suck.
True, but humanity is not stuck there.
Power must not be concentrated too much on single persons. People need to share power.
There are ways to do it so much better than reddit did it. Read my second item: you need a way to review Mod's decisions, and it must be an easy and transparent way.
Think about courts in real life: above a court, there is a higher court, and they can review the lower court's decision.
That is a very Usamerican way of looking at the problem.
Mods having their own personal, perverted interpretation of the rules (or interpretation of your post)
No easy, transparent way to review their decisions.
Is it possible to view/use real reddit subreddits in a Lemmy app? (I have thunder and jerboa installed)
To poop isn't enough!
You also have to write things on toilet walls. Social media are the toilet walls of the internet, after all.
I think that was later, when money started to take over.
