Cool idea! I always have ideas to make these sorts of community apps, but end up worrying about trolls and talk myself out of it.

  The trick is to consider moderation/administrator from the get go. Build your frontend, but also build your admin/moderation panel and have that live. At the very least, add the functionality of being able report and kick people off the platform, that's a great start and you can easily manage to manually moderate things in the beginning. If the platform grows, you'll need to grow your admin tooling with it.

    That’s good advice. I have an idea for a slow social network that’s based on your town/region/city (like bbses, and then local IRC channels were like) to help provide a place for online local community. It’s probably a pipe dream, but like I mentioned I always talk myself out of even trying it for fear of how hard moderation would be.
