>my instance is shutting down in January. I have no way to migrate my posts. This is the sixth time I've gone through this over the years. I don't feel like dealing with this stuff anymore.

I thought that was the whole point of ActivityPub? that your comments aren't contained on any one instance and are yours to move around.

And why is your instance shutting down?

>I can probably count on one hand the number of times I had to block people because, get this, Twitter had a quality filter which caught most insufferable people

I guess "had" is the underrated word there. But even then I'm confused. There were entire curated block lists made because some people were so pervasive in so many circles while skirting the rules.

>My needs and experience here are likely VERY different from yours. At this point, they're often too different to reconcile.

Sure, but I' wondering if that need will be met anywhere on the net. Strictly moderated popular forums just isn't a thing on the modern net. You need to go to a less popular, lower traffic place for such management.
