They did kick out a lot of mods during the protests and moderation has gone to utter shit since the api change

    Yeah. I read an article (also on Ars Technica funnily enough) about how some moderators aren't equipped to deal with things. I believe they singled out r/canning because of the potential for food poisoning, but r/ender3 had a sympathetic "mod" who only joined that subreddit as a moderator just to fuck with Reddit corporate when they were replacing the mods.

    Reddit, predictably, did not respond, so whoever wrote that article did their job right.
