That idea of users voting out moderators off their positions if not implemented properly it could be abused. With how many bots and throwaway accounts there are, a voting system for that I don’t see going well.
Maybe I’m missing something, maybe they end up implementing it well. Either way I doubt I’ll back to reddit. I quite like it here.
I feel like the voting system is just an excuse to start removing mods or threatening them with removal. It would be so easy to abuse, and with so many consequences to a mod being removed by vote.
Yeah, this is going to get used to cause bizarre and gross takeovers of subreddits.
spez is really trying hard to speedrun being Elon Musk
I suspect u/spez sees setting it up for abuse is a feature rather than a bug
