The answer is an ephemeral WoT. When you hug A, you give +1 trust to A. When you slap B, you give -1 trust to B. Then, the users trusted by A (ephemerally) form a WoT that can be used to collaboratively mute untrusted people. That is collaborative moderation. It is invented by @ABH3PO, and I’m working on a topic-based feed.

Yeah I'm not sure this works in the ephemeral scenario, It works in a topic feed with persistent npubs, because you can choose your moderators and minimize the abuse, in an ephemeral scenario you can abuse the moderation mechanism and the user doesn't get an option to chose or the choice is meaningless since there's no PoW attached to it
