Are there moderators like Reddit (The stupid ones)
Stupidity is not exclusive to any platform. It’s also not exclusive to its moderators.
What are the DOs and DON’Ts here?
Instances (the servers) can be very different from one another, and so can be communities (the subs or forums, if you prefer), each with very different type of users and very different rules. Some instances have a reputation to harbor very… radical users, so they would be better avoided unless you share the same values as they (you can block them entirely, if you want to). As for communities, take some time to read their rules and just follow them, this should keep you safe from most issues.
What’s great is that if you disagree with a community rules or with its moderators, you are freely create your own community and try to make it as popular as the one you just left. Also, unlike with Reddit, you’re free to create your own server/instance.
There are, and the rules for each community (subreddit) differ, but there are also the instance (server) rules, so it can get a bit complex. The community rules are usually posted in the “sidebar” for that community, eg. https://lemmy.world/c/asklemmy, the instance rules you’ll usually find in the “sidebar” for the servers home page, eg. https://lemmy.world/. you can tell what instance a community is in by the community name, if it doesn’t have a “@” in it, it’s on the same instance you are.
Just have a quick look at both sets of rules before you post something and you’re probably fine. Even if you get banned from one community or instance, there are likely similar communities and instances elsewhere you can go. The biggest difference will usually be how active they are. You can also set up your own community, and if you’re tech oriented, your own instance.
Well, every instance has their own rules and the communities that are on that instance have rules for the community. These can be found in the sidebar.

If your only problem with reddit was moderation…
This might not be the right place.
Why not? Is it much harder than Reddit?
Harder?
I have no idea what you mean…
What I meant is that is not the reason most people are here
The ones here because they’re IP banned from reddit, tend to keep doing things that get them banned here.
Depends, what are your thoughts on genocide, racism, and fascism?
