It was called newspaper back in the day. Printing something was expensive so quality must have been good, that people were willing to read it. And social part was provided by posting letter to the newspaper adress with a hope to be printed.

taladar,

As someone who has lived through some of the time with newspapers and without social media, no, quality was pretty bad back then too.

The active user base is trending slightly downward as a few instances have shut down recently but the amount of registered users is steadily increasing so those trends will reverse as the largest barrier to entry is just knowing about Lemmy and creating an account.

Some fedi services have blocklists that look for keywords to auto-block from your feed. Its pretty neat! Might be something to consider.

The Somethingawful forums did exactly this with a $9.95 one time membership fee.

Reverendender,

How did it work out?

Nomecks,

They ran for years with minimal shit content and trolls.

Sure. But will it be profitable and will enough people want to use it? I think most likely the answer is no.

Professional communities with invite-only registration, where invites are only distributed to people with high ratings. Also you can add higher barriers, like a requirement to write a valuable on-topic to get rating above a certain level, regardless of the comment rating level. Basically a self-moderated narrowly focused community with invite only registration.
