  Reddit already has professional mods who deal with reported content, across all subreddits, in the following prohibited categories: > Harassment > Threatening violence > Hate > Sexualization of minors > Sharing personal information > Non-consensual intimate media > Prohibited transaction > Impersonation > Copyright violation > Trademark violation > Self-harm or suicide > Spam Those moderators aren't doing their work for free, so why should anyone else?

    > Those moderators aren't doing their work for free, so why should anyone else? Because they actively volunteer to do so.

    Reddit admins only have site-wide rules to worry about. They don't need to care about whether a particular post is appropriate for a particular subreddit. If they did that would make their job a lot more complicated.
