How long will mods of big subs have the right to refuse before Reddit decides they know what’s best for the users and paywalls them anyways?
That was my first thought. Mods found out how much power they actually had when reddit forced all subreddits open when the API debacle occurred. Wondering if some of the defaults or smaller communities will even get a shot at saying no.
Mods found out how much power they actually had when they capitulated as soon as reddit threatened to replace them
reddit forced all subreddits openwhen the API debacle occurred.FTFY
they gave in so fast to keep their power lol, like bro give up your fulltime job that pays nothing
a handlful of the mods actually own hundreds of subs, like less than 100 owns like 500 subs. they arnt definitely not going to give up that power, they have so many thousands or hundreds of thousands of minions.
Yep, thats when reddit became lame to me initially, they own all the top subs and control the directive, its so against the concept of a community driven forum, they frive the conversation wherever they choose and get better (more abusive) tools every year
wanna bet the political subs, even the conservative ones are owned by the same mods and they are just stoking anger and divisiness for the sake of RU. because i found eerily similarities between how the “left” political subs behave and the mods from the right ones, almost the same thing. how can they not see they allowed right wing propaganda articles into politics sub.

theres only 92 controlling the 500 top subs, so not long. and those are the powermods, that most likely has reddit admin’s ear(direct line of communications).
Remember when sites would make bad decisions and then just, you know… fucking die? Reddit’s entire existence is owed to Digg imploding like the Titan submarine.
Notice how that doesn’t happen anymore? No matter how egregious their infractions, no movements away from Twitter or Facebook - no matter how deeply they are infiltrated/compromised by runaway fascism/capitalism - nothing has an impact. No backlash, no matter how huge - is strong enough to shutter these sites and make them stop being money-printing operations.
It’s almost like there is an infinite money glitch going on and no matter what, if you’re in the “in” crowd, your shit gets to stay around no matter how much everybody thinks it smells like shit.
Hm.
No one guessed this but targetting crypto/stock communities makes more sense than nsfw, they love shit like this
i think they went after OF/NSFW accounts because of 2 reason: 1 is there was a obvious troll bot spamming htier porn AI there constantly, 2nd is reddit isnt getting any revenue from the OF accounts that are earning per/account(i dont know how to they are getting money from that) so they banned the of ones.
