you could to type m/community@lemmy.instance after your kbin instance domain.
like to open technology@beehaw.org
https://kbin.social/m/technology@beehaw.org
edit : it seems that it doesn't work if the community is not federated yet.
kbin is another platform federated with lemmy and other platform from the fediverse. not the same project than lemmy.
I don't thing that your assumption is correct. One can open a magazine without the envy to control discourse and have censorship power.
So for me your thesis is therefor already flawed.
That being said I think that the lottery system is very interesting. I know some politic and apolitical groups who use it, and the ideal is appealing. I'm also very curious about how effective it is in reality. It may be counterintuitively worst than most classic systems of representation. (I personally don't think that it's a good system for justice.)
But as for right now, it's too early to try to implement such a things, in my opinion. But I welcome the conversation and I'm thankful that you started it.
I think that first, things need to settle down. We don't have yet moderating tools. And the website is still under construction.
A lottery is not a great idea because just picking up people randomly won't work, you need to know of the technical aspect of things work. And also some people may join with not good intent at all. So it could have catastrophic results.
I guess it will be pretty simple to come up with mod guiding rules, and if anyone has an issue with moderation you can simply contact the instance admin and settle things.
but as for right now we are still in the early stage of this website, so patience.
edit: just though about the comparison with jury duty, I guess you are talking about the USA in this example. a lot of countries doesn't have a jury of peer, and they are good reason for that.
you click on the "crossed" O . the same way you block a magazine or an user.
https://kbin.social/m/kbinfaqs@kilioa.org is a good place for knowledge
EDIT: this doesn't block the instance, but only the domain. new tool coming soon, confirmed by the main dev:
domain blocking existed long before federation. It serves as a way to block sources like youtube.com, spotify.com. Blocking instances will be a separate option in the user profile soon. I will submit a pull request.

it may have the same effect but it's not the same feature. if you block domains, like you block magazines or users, you get to have an ensemble view of all those in your user settings. that kinda make sense.
and I can't find where the instances defederated with your technique are listed. maybe you know where?
edit: syntax

I think that this button defederate your content, not the content from other instances.
if you want to block another instance, you can click on its domain name (between bracket) and block it. like you'll block usual magazine
you can also type this in your url to access a domain : https://kbin.social/d/name of the domain like kbin.social or lemmy.whatever
then you can check the magazines and domains you blocked in your profile's settings.
but it's still a bit buggy and need some work to work correctly.

it may be working now
I'm replying with my kbin.social account now. I followed my feddit.ch user account and it unblocked the thread this user was part of, but I can't see the rest for now.
I'm gonna test some more.
well spotted!
I had this conversation on mastodon a month ago:
NSFW is too broad for a tag. We should move on from it and redefined content warning tag specific to the content.
