Only a limited number of people can report a post -- intended?

Community Moderation, I think, is totally offable. Trust Levels and the actual mod tools are not (IMO, at least).

But I have noticed hidden posts already. I’m assuming that was from a mod accepting a report as valid and not from an abundance of community reports.

Well, I did see one post somewhere around here (Post #11 above) suggesting that ANYONE can delete (or hide?) anyone’s else’s post simply by reporting it as spam. I’m sure we agree that we can’t have that around here.

Not a single flag, not at our Trust Levels. We do have a few Regulars (TL3) who might be able to against a TL0. And one of the TL4s could do it, but I don’t know who any of those people are.

What’s a hidden post look like?

I’ve seen a number of deleted ones; but I don’t think that’s the same thing.

Like this.

Huh. Apparently anybody can still read it; which doesn’t really take it out of the discussion.

Well, that was true of “ignored” posts too at the Old Place.

And once the hidden post is un-hidden, I didn’t see any obvious way to re-hide it.

Reload the page.

True; but not of anything that the mods removed.
