Is it possible to have a public forum without moderators? (lemmy.world)

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.

You mean, is it legally possible? Technically possible? Or are you imagining what would happen if there were no moderators?

There are many public forums that are not actively moderated, in that the administrator responsible for moderating can't be bothered.
