Personally I think not having karma limits is nice currently! I understand why they were used but grinding karma as a lurker on reddit was frustrating.

Your instance can ban the offending instances, so they won't show up for you or your fellow users, and vice versa. It provides a good way to exile the offending community.

Do you know how the report button works?

Does it send a report to the mods of your instance?

I honestly have no idea. I'm just running my own instance so I'll just ban any users from my federation feed if I need to.

If you check the modlog, you can see what mods/admins have been doing recently (note that there is potentially offensive content there)
