As a former reddit mod who's made some communities here, so far they are 0% of the work of the reddit ones (not that I was working hard on the reddit communities, I set up automod and let it run). But so far I haven't had to do any mod work here because there's basically no spam and no bots. I'm sure that will change, but I can also just recruit more mods as the communities grow.
how recently were you a mod on reddit? I've been trying to raise discussions on various communities that I follow about a possible migration and I'm receiving a lot of indifference from the userbase. However, I feel like the mod userbase feels differently given the widespread blackout (many of these communities joined the blackout but it seems like a lot of their users are unaware or unconcerned with the changes.)
my question is do you think the mods are more sympathetic to migrating platforms?
I think it's a mix, some places did a poll and it was like 30% of prople who use 3rd party apps, so it's a minority that'll be impacted, and disproportionatly mods because native modding tools suck.
