Has there been any indication that reddit may pay creators and moderators, like youtube and meta and other platforms do? or are they just expecting to pocket all the cash?

Itβs a tough thing to configure. How much do you pay. Do you pay on volume or on difficulty.
Idk, why do you think mods should get paid? Reddit still has a dedicated team of admins and other that just run the site from the shadows that do banning and removing of illegal/ stuff against tos. Mods choose to run a community and like the feeling of power they get from it. They don't have to run multiple or any, they can always leave it up to vote if they want someone else to be a mod. Being a mod can be full time or it can be 10 minutes a day clearing up your small subreddit. Also each community can have many mods so why should reddit pay those that don't want to add more?
most infringing content that's removed from reddit is actually removed by mods, not reddit staff/admins
