I am looking for projects of links agregators or micro blogs, that don't rely on centralized servers and especially no mods. I've had it with mod's power trips. and how personal biases affect heavy moderation.

I want to try something with no governance, maybe p2p, and with better transparency than lemmy.

I don't think that's feasible for anyone. Pretty soon your and every other user would be flooded with unwanted content, which will take time off all users individually to filter out. What this will result in is filterlists being made by community members, which the clients will use, some by default so that the system remains usable even for new users.

I don't see how that would make a meaningful difference.
I mean sure, technically now it's you who's filtering, but is it really you if 1. the filterlists are maintained by a 3rd party and 2. you don't have the capacity to audit all changes to the filterlists?
