No, the 'admins' are people who work for reddit. 'Mods' are people who volunteer to work for reddit (the 'despots'). By the way, you should try modding a moderately large sub and see what you have to deal with. It is always easy to criticize until you are one having to do the work.
- gonzo41 4y agoI don't think people make that distinction in their lived felt experience. Mods == Reddit.
- msrenee 4y agoUnless it's changed completely since I bolted from there a couple years ago, they absolutely do. Anyone who had been using the site for more than a few weeks generally understood the difference.
- TheHappyOddish 4y agoThat sites been eternal Septembered multiple times, to the point it's almost entirely unrecognisable. Reddiquitte isn't even a thing anymore, they now have "policies" and "codes of conduct". I wouldn't be shocked if the meta has changed to call anyone with powers "admins" now.
- Eisenstein 4y agoIt hasn't, but then again reddit is huge, and it is easy to wall yourself off from most of it if you try hard enough, which I have.
