Is it possible to have a public forum without moderators?
Like, I keep seeing reddit moderators abusing their powers but rarely they suffer consequences. So I’m wondering if there’s a way to have a public forum without moderators.

Technically, yes, at least insofar as the elimination of a specific ‘moderator’ position. You could find ways to distribute the duty to users or something, but you still need something to control content or you will end up with something posted which brings government level antagonism.
