It's interesting how during numerous examples of users trying to fight mod teams over changing direction of the sub, new rules, unwanted new mods etc., and getting admins involved, the answer was ALWAYS the same "Subs are owned by their creators/mods. If you don't like it you can always create a new one".

Suddenly they belong to communieties? Communities that in numerous examples voted by themselves to stay closed? How absolutely full of shit they are...

Im a reddit mod with a sub over 20 million - today they removed our top mod, and then sent us a message saying that 'we requested a re-ordering'. It's total bullshit.

Reddit preaches democracy but suddenly when this same democracy votes to focus on John Oliver content, they threaten to take control.

From "redit is 4 evry1 guise lets be demcratic" to no, not like that. Fuck it I'm taking this shit "

What a disaster man

Remember the old saying: if a company is giving you something for free, you're not the customer, you're the product.

Subreddits are Reddit's product. Reddit makes money by selling subreddits to advertisers. If moderators damage that product, Reddit takes action. End of story.

I just blocked *.reddit.com on my DNS servers. This page is history.

What short sighted assholes

Sounds like "Yeah. Sometimes people accidently fall on the knife with their stomach you know. After that they prefer removing it and putting back for a few times to ease pain"

Honestly, mods should just force the issue and make Reddit replace them. It's going to be a big problem if Reddit needs to find new moderators for hundreds if not thousands of subreddits. And that's assuming all the new moderators will play along and not immediately join the protest, go on a tyrannical power trip, or just go dark after a few weeks.

Why would anyone even want to be a mod right now? It's like your boss threatening to fire you from a job you're not paid for while the building is actively on fire.

Mod of /r/homeimprovement here, that's exactly what we are doing. We are staying dark and forcing them to replace us if that's what they want to do at this point. We are at least going to make them work for it, lol.

I thought most mods asked their communities what they'd like to the mods to do. In which case they are already doing what the communities have asked.

Reddit's staff or the fucking mafia?

Well good! They can pay to mod everything then! Should be easy when everyone is gone or posting the new Lemmy community that is taking overr.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

At this point I'm cheering for reddit to keep going as they are so the migration keeps on going too.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

It's pretty obvious that reddit needs these communities. But these communities don't need Reddit, clearly.

[–] IrvingWashington 5 points 1 year ago

Just start deleting every comment that isn’t hate speech.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

It's ridiculous that they are referring to the protest as a "break". Are they that dilusional?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

No, this is passive aggressive for "if you don't want to do your unpaid job then get out".

I got the same one yesterday.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Reddit admin seem to be under the very mistaken impression that the passive viewers are the source of Reddit's success. Creating and modding a sub is a labor of love, and people who have the love, time, and patience to do it well are a tiny minority of Reddit's users. When they alienate mods, Reddit dies.
