I'd readily give up the spam-free and misinformation-free networks of Facebook and Twitter for a moderator who knows what satire is, doesn't get nudes and dunes confused, and can generally parse context.
Private communities tend to have less of all of that, unless maybe you're building them with the worst of humanity, in which case I guess it's good that Facebook is there to keep you and your friends from doing Everything Bad. Yikes.
Out of curiosity: what level of AI or human-driven moderation would it take to prevent you from linking your own site to, let's say, a Hitler Fan Club page? Is that something you feel you might do by accident without Facebook there to tell you that is Bad?
Or, say a random site said it's Good to drink bleach - would a browser extension be sufficient to prevent you from linking to them, or would it require an actual human like Keegan-Michael Key to show up and slap the mouse out of your hand and explain to you in-person that this is Stupid and Bad and Dumb?
I fear for people who rely on Twitter Safety to keep them from doing a Big Dumb.
