"What the users want" my ass. Reddit doesn't give 2 shits about what the users want.
"The users decide what the subreddits should be about."
"No, not like that!"
THE NUKING OF ENTIRE MOD TEAMS WILL CONTINUE UNTIL MORALE IMPROVES
END OF LINE
I checked https://blackout.photon-reddit.com/ and I see a lot of subs that opened at exactly the same time as r/mildlyinteresting. Some of them appear to still have mods but others, like r/self, don't show any mods, at least on the official app. As far as I can tell, all of the subs that opened at that time were set to NSFW
That’s exactly what I’m seeing. Those who set their subreddits as NSFW are getting removed.
Reddit is getting messier each day
Mods don't typically give 2 shits about what users want either. I don't support what reddit is doing, thing is I don't support much of what reddit has done for the past 7-8 years. You guys are just now catching on that reddit has ceased to be a viable platform even though in reality its death happened long ago. A big part of the problem is overzealous and power hungry mods, especially in the bigger subs. So yeah, I don't support reddit, but I really couldn't care less about how the mods perceive themselves to be mistreated either. Basically they are getting just a tiny taste of the treatment they've given the average user for years and suddenly just right they FINALLY see it as a problem. Cry me a river. You reap what you sow.
Couldn't agree with you more. So many shitty mods on Reddit, with no way to do anything about it. Reddit sucks, but I don't feel bad for the mods one bit.
It is just crazy. how do they see this playing out for them.
I guess we'll see if the moderators stand up for principles or grovel to the Spez for their little corner of power.
If they were smart, they'd be copying all the content out to something Spez doesn't control.
I am shocked!
Wait, no, sorry, what's the opposite of shocked?
Lmao
