Talking to a colleague about toxic and less-toxic online communities and clubhouses, I realized one very simple thing:

The Production User Calls I moderate DO NOT REQUIRE AN ACCOUNT for full participation.

No registration.

No login.

No membership.

None of that.

I’ve also never kicked anyone off a call.

I hope that counts for something.
