MODERATORS
They've posted some explanations before, as have done other people who follow the same pattern. Basically it's to make it easier for people who are migrating into the feddi/lemmyverse to post stuff on the instance they land on, without having to deal with some of the quids of federation so abruptly.
AFAIK, the people who tend to create communities with that pattern (people, not bots) are more than happy to give them away to more responsible people since that's kind of the point.
Disclaimer: I've thought of doing the same for helping discoverability of the stuff I moved here from reddit for.
