I think that's been part of my issue - there's a wealth of bad, or even just "ambivalent" actors, and not enough moderation in a lot of channels.
Plus, while stopping someone from hate speech feels like a clear action for moderation, berating them for things like posting memes in "general" can feel totalitarian. A lot of communities don't commit to that kind of strictness.
