Who is u/TheArstaInventor and why is he moderating so many communities across Reddit and /kbin? (kbin.social)

I noticed that he is the moderator of this community and many others, such as:

r/RedditAlternatives
r/AmazonLunaHub
r/SearchWithAndi
r/cloudgaming
r/searchengines
r/ChargerDaytonaSRT
r/ChargerDaytona
r/Kia_EV9
r/HyundaiONIQ
r/DriveIndi
r/electriccars
r/TeslaModel4
r/ioniq7
r/E1Series
r/SearchKagi
r/polestar2
r/CohostSocial
r/ManyverseSSB
r/Manyverse_Social
r/StudyInSweden
r/EducationAtEurope
r/HydrogenFCVehicles
r/CitroenAmiCar
r/ProjectBloodstrikeBR
r/Hydrogen_Vehicles
r/AmazonLunaPortal

and 28 more in /kbin

How is he able to manage all these communities? What are his motivations?

I'm curious to know more about this person who seems to have a lot of influence and control over the content and discussions on Reddit and /kbin. I'm sure I'm not the only one who wonders about this.

I am by no means attacking u/TheArstaInventor, but I'm genuinely interested in his motivations.

Sometimes if you subscribe to a magazine that's not from your instance it'll just say that your instance owner is the mod even if that's not true, especially for Lemmy communities. That's probably what's actually going on, but I didn't check all of those mags to confirm

I'm pretty sure kbin's instance owner is Ernest.

I assume you're right on that, I didn't check OP's instance, thats just a weird quirk id seen on my end

You are correct, @ernest is the owner of kbin.social
