Main points: He plans to make moderators popularly elected to more easily vote them out.

Hopes the next frontier will be subreddits as businesses.

He does not want Reddit employees to take on the work. Moderator hours were valued at 3.2 million last year, 3% of reddit’s revenue.

Deleting the subreddits would be an easily reversible action for admins. Users will need to edit over comments to actually make a change that wouldn’t easily be reverted. Idk, maybe it could be. It would have to be a lot more users too.

I've been considering what to do with my old Reddit account. I haven't deleted it yet because I feel like it could still be of some use (and I kind of want to go through there and save some memes I've posted and stuff). I have thousands of comments/posts on there. It would be incredibly time consuming to edit every single one. Is it worth it to take the time to actually do that?

I really hate the idea of that dickhead profiting off of content I created and I'd like to take a more proactive approach to this whole thing. Plus, I'm curious as to what the impact/reaction would be - if any.

There are several tools what may help you archive then overwrite your content. Check them out and let us know what you decide to do. The content is what makes Reddit special. If that content is not only reduced but available in a better format over here… it’s a win for everybody but the IPO bagholders
