Mastodon instance moderators should…
@aral
Ask people to delete their post with reasons why. If they refuse then delete but there should be more than one moderator. I've seen folks posts that were deleted that didn't seem in anyway problematic -
@aral I, a non-moderator, want the power to delete OTHER people's posts.
I am a good kitty and can be trusted with this power

(Personally, option 1 feels like a violation to me – content belongs to the author not to the host and moderators should no more be deleting other people’s posts than they should be editing them – while option 2 – especially combined with a limit and/or suspension or the threat thereof – is well within the rights of the host regardless of whether I agree with the actual moderation decision itself. Option 1 feels like censorship while option 2 – while it could easily constitute censorship – feels more like moderation to me.)
@aral Mastodon servers and the moderators are providers of a service. By being on that server you essentially agree to their terms. It is not a public broadcasting service (which never really exists) where you have the right to post anything. Nor does anyone's post automatically have a right to be seen by everyone.
Of course if you don't like the moderation then move or start your own instance.

@aral I've been Mayor of https://dobbs.town since December 2018. The few times I've asked a SubGenius to re-consider a post, they have (or rage-quit, which solves the problem in a different way). I'm not sure that I've ever deleted a single post.
Related: Reports without a call to action may be considered for information purposes only. "Remove this post" is a call to action. "That SubGenius is a jerk" may be true but is not a call to action.
