“He added that he plans to make changes to moderator policies so users can vote them out. Currently, a higher-ranking moderator — or the company — can boot out moderators. Incidentally, a r/Apple moderator posted on Twitter (via 9to5Mac) that Reddit was threatening to remove moderators who are staging an indefinite blackout.”
Does spez stand to gain anything from intentionally tanking Reddit right now? None of this makes sense and can he really be this dumb? I’ve been on Reddit 6 years and only went to Apollo when Reddit took away sort options. So they pushed me away with making their app worse and then took away the place I turned to. It’s not like I’m going to go back to a company that seems to be intentionally pushing me away
At this point mods should just quit moderating altogether, there were more than 20 thousands participating in the protest, good luck replacing them all.
Let subs derail and see how investors are happy about what kind of content reddit hosts.
I can’t remember which sub it was but the mods posted a message when they opened back up that posts could take 2 weeks to review before going through. They basically said “we’ll get to it when we get to it, nobody is paying us to do this” haha
It’s r/scams, they’re pissed, as they should be
I bet sooner after r/Apple will be literally about apples, subreddits have started doing this after they got forcefully reopened
Is there a way to add a John Oliver angle?
Users could vote out mods?
So we can go vote out gallowboob from his million different subs he mods?!
Spez has been un-deleting people’s posts, forcibly resubscribing them to large subs that they left, and sending out a warning that says “are you sure you want to post that” anytime you try to post a comment mentioning Kbin or Lemmy. I doubt he would actually give that much choice to users,
