As someone who has 0 modding experience on Reddit. I’m assuming the third party apps (Apollo, Rif etc.) Are the apps that mods use daily to moderate. But I don’t think many people understand that and it’s never said when people make this argument.
I think it’s the same with accessibility but I’m not too sure. Cause Reddit said they’re allowing non commercial apps which provide accessability free rein on the API (bar nsfw posts). But I think a lot of blind people use conventional third party apps which work with their phones text to speech. But I’ve never seen this argument made.
@Doggylife: My understanding is that third-party Reddit moderating tools tend to trend more towards more sophisticated automoderators and the like. Although that having been said, the core moderating tools on Reddit are not great even on desktop and they’re abysmal on the official app.
Ah that makes sense. Thanks for the info. Am I right in saying that the moderator’s are also annoyed because they use Apollo or RIF for moderating as well as it is a better experience than on the app? I know I’ve seen them mention a mod queue or something like that which isn’t available in the official app.
