How exactly do Nostr communities work? From the looks of it, if I create a community, I (or people I set as mods) would need to manually approve every single post.
Is there an alternative - be it automatically allowing posts, using WoT, pre-approving people, or some third party bot that auto approves some/all posts?
Or am I just misunderstanding how the modlog works in communities?
