Admins switching subs back from NSFW to SFW (archive.fo)

Original link.

Apparently the admins aren't too happy with the new form of protest that Reddit moderators found, since NSFW subs don't run ads. Brought to Reddit users by the zombie admin account u/ModCodeOfConduct!

The admins also removed the entire mod team of r/MildlyInteresting (original link) and replaced it with either employees or sycophants, while giving all mods a 7d suspension ban.

Reddit: "subs belong to the community!"

Also Reddit: "screw the community, this is MY PRECIOUS!"

I'm willing to bet that r/ModCoord will be eventually banned. And the ban message will say something cryptic, vague, and meaningless.

So, they're paying someone to moderate the moderators? Just a thought. Maybe good for a chuckle.

Facebook spends 2bln a year on content moderation. Spez (the guy who started his career by selling out the work of his suicided friend) has been interviewed saying he talked to Musk about how to lower operation costs. Can't imaging 2bln/yr is cheaper than what he had before.

Odds are that it's some old employee (or even spez) doing the dirty work under a different account to avoid being "harassed" (i.e. called out on his lies).
