Reddit demands moderators remove NSFW labels, or else
Reddit decides if a community is NSFW — not the moderators.
You're viewing a single thread.
I removed myself as a moderator and left Reddit.
Good on you.
It was quite depressing seeing how many sub reddits ended their protests as soon as the mods were threatened with being removed from their unpaid positions.
The power and control really does go to some people's heads.
I think we need some rule or something here that limits the number of communities you can moderate
The only time you can successfully institute anti-corruption tactics is early. After that it’s pretty much impossible.
Not that I disagree with your premise, but the people that want to do it will just create alts.
That's just a cat and mouse game. IMHO, the admins and developers have better things to do with their life.
Yeah, I stayed on the sub I used to moderate, and then when the community didn't want to keep up the protest I left them, I wouldn't really be able to do a good job anyway when the app I used for it when not sitting in front of the PC wouldn't work anymore, so it wouldn't make sense anyway, so rewrote and deleted all my comments, before I did the account itself, and my alt account as well.
I didn’t remove myself as a moderator for the two subs I mod, but I haven’t been on Reddit since Apollo shut down. I use my phone a heck of a lot less these days lol
Moderators remaining are already showing signs of exasperation. I was mass wiping all my account comments and received a week suspension for 'inciting hate' by an admin for a comment that moderators ignored (it was a comment in a post about an article quoting Putin "claiming the West wanted Russians to all kill each other"). The comment was 10 days old, but apparently editing to replace the original statement with "deleting - because Spez" triggered the admins.
Oh you too? I was wondering why I got a 7 day suspension yesterday out of the blue, I was so confused
Oh well, just stick a fork in reddit because it's done
