Perhaps I just haven't used nostr enough, but the part I've been trying to wrap my head around regarding relay moderation is... that I haven't seen any simple system that explains what each relay's moderation philosophy is. It feels like as you sign up for relays that should be made clear, but none of the clients I've played around with seem to present relays in such a manner.

It seems like the moderation details, if they're all going to be relay-based, should be front and center.

Separately, perhaps I don't understand the tech enough, but relay-based moderation seems like it would only solve for some classes of moderation issues, not all.

I think your idea of having the moderation be a separate service, enabling relays/clients to opt-in makes more sense... but it does leave open the question of who sets up such moderation services, who staffs them, and why...
