You'd think in 16 years they'd have understood.. well.. anything, really.
The antenna on Pikachu is a nice detail.
It's always hard to find trustable mods to contribute with a community. It was like this already before Reddit started backstabbing its own userbase, a few years ago; recent events made it even worse. Nowadays I'm pretty sure that the only ones who might volunteer there are the people who should be far, far away from mod duties.
There's a finite number of people willing to do a bunch of unpaid labor. Pissing off the ones who were most devoted is not a good strategy.
On the downside- there will always be people wanting to accept the power of being a mod.
On the plus side- those new young, power-hungry moderators are likely to cause even more people to jump ship.
Why don't people want to sacrifice their free time to administrate our business for free?!?
Funny thing is they used to, because there was a time when it was enjoyable…
Spez when he fucks over his customer base and people just leaves instead of giving him more money
You're right that he's alienated (heh) his customer base. But remember, his customer base is the reddit advertisers.
Reddit is doomed
Understood what? There was always a bunch of mods waiting in line, wanting to make a fine addition to their sub collection. It's actually shocking to me this time too
That when you betray trust you become untrusted.
I mean, duh.
Yeah, I think a lot of people who would be interested in moderating have taken a good look at how Reddit is treating existing mods, and gone, “nahhh.”
Any real.ides of how is it developing? I feel like with Reddit's reach, there will be enough people wanting to mod.
