In my imagination, some sort of referral/voucher system might work. A invites B, B invites C. C turns out to suck. Ban C, discredit B heavily and discredit A lightly. Enough discredit and you get banned or can't invite more people.
Apart from not being that interesting for now, the first line of defence for most is manually-approved sign ups, as far as I can tell.
When the Fediverse grows, I think that weeding out accounts that post slop will be the "easy" part; the hardest part will be to identify the silent bot accounts that do nothing but upvote.

It’ll be interesting to see how Discord enshittifies.
It’s the default destination for the niche-interest “cozy web,” and they could go down several paths.

It already has. Any time I boot it up it asks me to sign up for premium this or that.

manual moderation, and there are some moderation bots that can detect spam.

Short answer is active moderation and Anubis.

They don't, but they are uninteresting for now

I vaguely remember kbin allowing you to see who upvoted a particular post, so it might not be too difficult.

Tough to differentiate bots that only vote from human lurkers who only vote.

Yeah, you'd need some graph analysis. Bots will all simultaneously upvote certain things, and over time a pattern should emerge.
