  My own opinion of mods is that most of the times you won’t notice that, but at the same time you’re likely to notice that automated tools are effectively getekeeping the place much more than any human mod. Another issue is that obsessing over reddit or discord mods speaks volumes on one’s engagement with these social media. Like, we say that mods are ‘no lifing’ the site, but so are users who complain too much. Either way we have dozens of tools to make research or learn new things and we certainly don’t need reddit to do that.

      This is the problem with these greentext communities, the people in them have never actually posted on 4chan and lack the ability to comment without filtering themselves.

  I feel bad when Reddit mods get blamed for stuff like this; in my opinion, it’s usually not their fault. It’s the fault of Reddit which relies on unpaid labor to make its entire website work literally at all. Maybe that was “fine” back in the early days when Reddit was smaller, but Reddit nowadays is one of the largest websites on Earth and represents the lowest common denominator of Internet users.

  I mod a couple communities here and don’t mind because this whole sphere is non-profit, the people on average are pretty cool, and vastly fewer people makes it so I can usually recognize people and talk to resolve problems. But the idea of working pro bono pseudononymously for a corporation with a market cap of 26.5 billion USD to keep their millions of (on average) stupid fucking users in line is one of the most soul-crushing things I can imagine. You really do have to take actions like this because, without stern moderation, communities will inevitably go to shit. They’ll return to the LCD, and your community will just melt into the rest of the front page with tenuously related, zero-effort posts.

  All things considered, I think most of Reddit’s mods are doing a good job (and well more than what they owe Reddit or even the random end user, which is fucking nothing and next to fucking nothing, respectively). Yeah, the mods could quit at any time, and they probably should at least on ethical grounds, but I also understand sunk cost and wanting to continue fostering a community about a subject you like that hundreds of thousands of people can enjoy.

      Completely ineffectual, though. There are too many people who cannot tolerate the absence of Reddit. The last Reddit mod strikes proved as much, as people simply let the admins dictate how, when, and why the strikes finished

    Yeah, it was fair to complain about power tripping reddit mods 4 years ago. Now I just feel bad for them. But I also haven’t used reddit in years.
