I'm not sure it's so much the rules. There are some really bad instances out there, most of which are defederated from the more popular ones because they're so filled with things like what you described.
The difference between this and reddit is that most of the instance admins aren't really interested in making a profit, don't have to answer to things like advertisers or media perception, etc. so they're more interested in creating a positive community for their users.
