I don't know if he's been taken out of context, but bluesky is supposed to have opt-out moderation, and the ability to opt-in to multiple moderation servers (a little like adlists in ublock et al), which doesn't seem like a terrible idea, but it sounds like they've gone further and completely removed stuff, because in reality it isn't decentralised at all.
Having the ability to opt out of moderation sounds very dangerous.
As a member of some unmod groups back in the early internet I can't but concur
It can be safely done with very small, or very cool, groups of folks, but not on the open internet.
you can't opt out of bsky's own moderation if you want to use bluesky pbllc's infrastructure
