If the moderators of canning cared so much about their community they wouldn't have closed it I guess.

  The problem is that Reddit's own features for moderators are abysmal. I don't know what Reddit's 2.000 employees are doing all day, but people have lamented that for years now without much significant change - and then Reddit just shut down the public API, which made moderation work muuuch more difficult.

    If they don't want to moderate for whatever reason (including shortcomings in the moderation tools) that's ok - I also don't want to moderate. What you can't do is close the community. If you care about it it makes more sense to have the usual spam here and there than to completely block every discussion. That's low and petty.

      Reddit already closes unmoderated subs specifically so they won't fill up with spam, so what's the difference?
