MODERATORS
hmm, maybe I should open an issue on github about it? however it will make moderating communities difficult.
Not possible really. The protocol Lemmy uses requires accounts, not only as a soft requirement, but the software your instance would be interacting with requires it to function.
It could always use an "anonymous" pseudo-account, (ie, have anonymous posts federate as anonymous@instance.com), or a pseudo-account per post (anonymous1@instance.com, anonymous2, etc). Thinking about it, the former has the advantage of being easy to block by instances or comms that don't like it.
