I can see why they need to do it, they apparently only have 4 main mods for the entire server

Why would they think that would be enough to withstand the waves from reddit? That was just a disaster waiting to happen.

happened too fast for them I guess.

once better mod tools or possibly an invite only read-only sort of solution is available they would re-open to other large instances.

I honestly doubt they'll open again, they'll get so used to their safe-space that they won't be able to handle all the shitposting.
And we know mod tools can only do so much, if they couldn't handle it with not so many users, I don't know what are they going to do later if more instances keep appearing and growing.
