Just logged into reddit, from Canada, it's not working correctly. I suspect so many subs going dark have unveiled a bug that has broken some algorithms. Here's hoping they are a pain to fix and require a significant reengineering effort. Anyone confirm the same behavior?

Every mod is just AwkwardTurtle on a throwaway account.

lol. Yeah no y'all aren't wrong by any stretch, and I doubt they'd really get rid of a lot of those power mods but the smaller subs? Sure. Also, give one of the regular people power-modding power and they could, theoretically, have normal function resuming inside a week. It'd still be a huge mess, though.

Either way, I'm sure there's an admin script available to mass-remove or ban, though that'd be a really drastic move on their part. The bluff call's far more likely. Be interesting to see what they do regarding the large subs and their mods, though.
