Great article, thanks for sharing. It’s nice to see news outlets accurately capturing then situation.
They make a good point about the free labour, the disconnect is huge. They want reddit to go public so they can make millions of dollars off the backs of indentured servitude. So when do the nods cut their cut? No way is reddit going to hire moderators for the 7000+ subreddits that went dark, so the salting the earth well and truly.
I do wish they'd been clearer about the issues created for mod and accessibility tools and I wish any of the articles would note the 'misrepresentation' of the conversation with the Apollo developer
