Online Governance: Six Case Studies
The software behind online community platforms encodes a governance model that represents a strikingly narrow set of governance possibilities focused on moderators and administrators.

Reccomend "manual community-council effort" with AI assistance that recommends and organizes community actions but is not given the power of action itself. I simply do not trust autonomous AI to make the correct decision that favours individual human dignity.
