It isn't surprising at all, it's about hard money not about communities and fuzzy warm feelings. It seems everyone is working hard down at Reddit to make as much money as they can out of an IPO for a zombified carcass.
It was a matter of time before the admins started doing this. Fuck Spez, you piece of shit
The way things are going R*ddit is going to become what Digg is today - a minimalist editor run link agreggator
Fuck Reddit. But honestly Iβm less and less invested with each passing day. I re-opened Apollo today and itβs already starting to feel old, foreign. I guess that means Lemmy is home now.
Lemmy should make itself as much like Reddit as it possibly can except for the small handful of money-grubbing cunts who'd rather destroy communities than allow them to exist without profiting from them.
So we can expect the mods of bigger subreddits to also lose their permissions? How will the admins manage to moderate 8k subs?
That's why we desperately need downvoting, making fake stories sink to the bottom.
my 2 'cents
this is how reddit dies. not with a whimper, but with a greedy CEO.
get fucked spez!
I'm quite happy here now. Given up on reddit. The day Apollo's API key is deleted is the day I edit all of my comments and give up on the platform completely. It's strange I how feel no regret over saying that. It's just the way it's going to be.
Have fun paying for moderation or have Spam running rampant. That won't get you out of the red numbers, spez. Just fuel for the fire.
This is informative and unfortunate.
Welp, I'm officially never going back to reddit, might as well start deleting my account now...
Does that mean they're unmoderated now? r/worldpolotics here we come!
This is extremely short-sighted on reddits part, elevating lower mods to leads can cause so much drama in a community particularly when the lower mods don't have experience, the lower mods will probably make basic mistakes that'll turn the average base away from the subreddit.
this is really going to bite reddit in the ass if they try it more its like trying to fix a leak by sticking random objects in the hole
This plays out like things I've seen in real life:
Well good for them, they can have a lot of fun paying reddit staff to be the mods now.
Well here is me abandoning reddit after 10 years. At the end they can do whatever they want with reddit and i can choose in which platform waste my time.
Itβs depressing that Iβm not surprised one bit. At this point, I donβt even think itβs worth sticking around until 3PA shut down on the 30th.
