You'd think in 16 years they'd have understood.. well.. anything, really.
The antenna on Pikachu is a nice detail.
It's always hard to find trustable mods to contribute with a community. It was like this already before Reddit started backstabbing its own userbase, a few years ago; recent events made it even worse. Nowadays I'm pretty sure that the only ones who might volunteer there are the people who should be far, far away from mod duties.
On the downside- there will always be people wanting to accept the power of being a mod.
On the plus side- those new young, power-hungry moderators are likely to cause even more people to jump ship.
Why don't people want to sacrifice their free time to administrate our business for free?!?
Funny thing is they used to, because there was a time when it was enjoyable…
Out of the loop here. Are they just booting mods that don’t do what they want and “play nice”?
Yep. And then opening threads in those communities looking for new mods. But the overwhelming majority of replies seem to be either trolling or giving them shit. Whatever few people volunteer are heavily downvoted, and a lot of those are either powermods moderating dozens or hundreds of subs, or people you do not want to have as mods anyway. So whatever thoughtful and insightful moderation there once was seems to be in heavy decline.
Yes. That exactly.
Reddit is doomed
