Where will reddit get enough mods to police the hundreds (thousands?) of subreddits each with tens of thousands of members that are rebelling against the API changes? Blocking/firing the existing mods would make the site descend into chaos.

- wahnfrieden 3y agoWell they’ve already started doing it
- WheatMillington 3y agoThey are really only going to care about the top tier subs, the rest will be replaced by the community. So really we're only taking 20-100 subreddits, depending on definitions.

- __loam 3y agoWow, very condescending!
- fineIllregister 3y agoDepends on what you consider "top tier". 26 subs with over 20 million subscribers are private or restricted. 86 subs with over 5 million subscribers. I was too lazy to count, but there's several dozen more over 1 million subscribers and a ton over half a million. I'm skeptical they can afford to lose all those subs or replace their mods. source: https://reddark.untone.uk/ https://reddark.untone.uk/
