9 out of 10 days most Reddit mods are considered the scum of the earth, it's a literal meme at this point how bad a lot of them are. They are the heroes this week because it fits their narrative.
Censorship, power-tripping, running subs with a iron fist, etc
Nobody knows or cares who they are.
As much as they'd like to think they are, the mods are not the community. The community is the people. The people are not there for the mods.
- ulrashida 3y agoSounds like you may need to find some different subs to participate in. Majority of experiences with mods in mine have been between very okay and positive.
- mvdtnz 3y agoHe's right though.
- SkyPuncher 3y agoI’ve literally never had a bad feeling towards any mods. The only ones that seem to have negative sentiment are those running massive subreddits (which come with insane challenges).
- pier25 3y agoSame. I've been using Reddit daily for over 10 years now. I only remember one occasion I had trouble with some mods.
- seoulmetro 3y agoNope. It happens in every single sub-reddit. It's just whether you're on the side that's targeted or not as to whether you feel it.
- fzeroracer 3y agoI don't know if you know this, but mods are not a monolithic group. Each sub is going to have a different set of mods, some worse than others. That said, if you thing mods are not the community you are more than welcome to try and run a community without mods. In fact you should do so right now. Go create a subreddit without mods and link it here.
- unclekev 3y ago> if you thing mods are not the community Mods are the stewards of the community. Not the community itself. They help foster a good community, but once again - they are not the community and can usually easily be replaced by someone else in the community who is passionate about the topic. > Each sub is going to have a different set of mods, some worse than others. The problem is that the main group of people driving this 'protest' are the Reddit power mods. Smaller communities with great mods have been strong-armed into this protest and have no idea why they are actually participating, because as per usual, Reddit power mods need to control the narrative and want people to believe that "Reddit is nothing without them".
- goles 3y agoWhen an ump acts like 30,000 people came to the game to watch them and not their team.
- The_Blade 3y agoAngel Hernandez and Scott Foster would like to give you a code review
- pbae 3y agoThey took the ball and went home. Some went through the motions of having a poll to try to legitimize it, as if the community would rather just shut down their subreddit for good because the mods feel disrespected.
- seoulmetro 3y agoIt is scorched Earth mixed with an incredible sense of political and emotional bias. Shame really. Not moderate in either sense of the word.
