Mod for a medium-ish sub here. We’re burning the sub down and leaving after the announcement today that they will start forcibly removing mods. We haven’t told our community but frankly we don’t care anymore. If Reddit wants control back so badly, they can remember what it was like when we weren’t around. I’m sure they will have backups or something they can restore, I’m not quite as technically-minded as most of HN is, but we’re at least going to make them put in some effort for once.
- yarrowy 3y agothis is the perfect example of mods going on a power trip.
- meepmorp 3y agoThis is people exercising the power they have in ways you don't like, and it makes you mad.
- Forgeties79 3y agoYou get it
- Forgeties79 3y agoDon’t worry we’re putting it to a vote. It’s just easy to prepare when you know what your community will vote for. If we’re proven wrong it’s not like we’re pushing the big red button. Besides I’m resigning no matter the outcome. There you go. One less power-tripping mod to worry about. Nothing lost for you and I don’t continue to build Reddit’s company for them for free. Everyone’s happy! I’m sure the admins will love the results when the whole mod team leaves and removes our bots. It’s their site, after all. We’re just landed gentry who provide nothing.
