What is a "top mod"? Why does that matter?

• Gaelan 6y ago
  On Reddit, moderators are only allowed to add or remove moderators below them on the list. Therefore, the moderator who is listed first—generally the one who initially created the subreddit—can not be removed by anyone else, and has the power to remove all of the other moderators, making them the de facto "owner" of the subreddit.
