It's only good because of all the hard work being put in by the moderators. Unfortunately, behind the scenes, Lemmy sucks and is severely lacking in moderation tools to deal with spammers, trolls and sick people who post illegal content.

See this post for instance, I feel pretty bad for the mods who have to deal with such stuff: https://beehaw.org/post/7943139

Goddam, I really hope I never come into contact with anything like that. I think it would turn me into a fanatical vigilante.
