Well, yeah, ideally I'd like an UBI-like system, so that one can moderate Reddit full time, and still pay rent and groceries. But letting that aside, do you think that all volunteers are in fact exploited? Or just these examples, because effectively they help someone else make money for free?
- motoxpro 5y agoI mentioned exploitive in response to "Moderators' time is free". Which I feel like is an exploitive view. I don't think being a volunteer means you are exploited, but I think someone not valuing their time is almost the definition of it to me. I think moderators time is extremely expensive. They could be doing one million other things with that time and getting paid for it. They could actually be doing the EXACT SAME thing and getting paid for it if they worked for a Reddit/Facebook/StackOverflow or were a community manager for a brand.
