    Its a good thing the Moderators famously fumbled their one attempt at protesting for anything significant to reddit

      You say it like mods are anything other than a bunch of random diverse people with little to no communications between those on different subs

        It was pretty organised, all things considered. The problem was that the organised approach was to do a single, one off, 2-day protest with no end-game. The consensus was simply far too naiive in assuming that the reddit admins wouldn’t just sit it out knowing that they’d only have to oust a few stragglers at most.

      They should’ve just stopped moderating in mass. If Reddit wants to replace them that’s fine, they’ll just need to replace all of them at once.

        too many of them are high on their own mouthfarts to even consider stepping down. A lot of mods are powermods that get off on abusing their authority, no amount of reddit enshitification will convince them to leave.

          That’s also what I noticed. They refuse to give up control as I guess it makes them feel powerful.

          I like that your useless account doesn’t even have the apostrophe in its name. It’s odd to me you spend time doing this. It’s no tits shouldn’t waste time correcting it’s and its!

        I actually want to know why people comment pedantic grammar corrections, are you trying to be helpful or does it give some sense of superiority?
