I just want to grab popcorn and hear if anyone knows what happened. I’m assuming the admins finally took control?

Happened between these 2 archives this morning:

    Mods could have forced reddits hand. If they had all striked and stopped modding at the same time. Leave it open, leave it up. But every single mod just walk away and watch reddit try desperately to backfill thousands of mod teams. But they played games instead cause they didn’t want to lose power or thought their little subreddit was important.

      The only issue this would truly cause in the long run is a bit of admin work. There are and were plenty of scabs willing to take over unmoderated subs. Sure, the quality of those subs would have suffered, but Reddit never cared about that beyond what essentially boiled down to “don’t let “bad” content stay up.” Beyond that, mods could do whatever they wanted for the most part.

      How would you propose getting every mod in Reddit to follow you plan? You’re talking about something in the range of 40,000 people or more.
