I was a mod on a millon people subreddit. I threatened them to go private and they took my mod povers. Better to reign in hell to serve in heaven.

Variden was once a great mod,

Until Reddit admins turned to fraud

So to Lemmy we’ll scoot,

Than be under Spez’ boot

And of his own hell he can be god

Lemmy/Kbin are the way. Freedom vs a capitalist platform that wants to satisfy its shareholders.

My sub was smaller it had 73k in 3 years. I deleted my account and gave it to another mod. Of course he re-opend it. Whatever!

They literally don't care about their users

Shoulda deleted the subreddit altogether.
