    Not controversial at all.

    There are considerations.
    Corporate instances affecting public opinion.
    Corporate opinion silencing/moderating public opinion.
    All that, and user moderation as well.

    A company may not like legitimate dissenters, but it might be in the public interest…
    Unmoderated, it might turn into a cesspool.
    So, who moderates it? AI/AutoMod? And how? What algo? Does that retroactively apply on updates?

    This happens on actual company forums. Yes.
    So, we need 2 lemmy communities per company? Their one, and a public one? What if the public one is being unfair? Who knows about that?

    It’s tough!
