MODERATORS
I could imagine universities would not be jumping at the chance to have to moderate something, while also running very close to violating the First amendment if they removed any speech from that platform.
the first amendment only applies in one country
True, but many constitutions have similar clauses
Not really, and it's not that big of an issue in general. Most of Europe has laws against the non-educational/historical display of authoritarian symbols for example.
Also on point to the topic, the municipality of Amsterdam runs its own Mastodon instance which is read-only.
