Reddit will remove mods of private communities unless they reopen

The removals will happen by “end of week.”

Reddit has informed moderators of communities that are still private in protest that they will lose their mod status by the end of the week. Thousands of communities went dark earlier this month to push back on the company’s planned API pricing changes.

    So when they said they respect users right to protest what they actually meant was that they dont. got it.

        Interesting read. Thanks for sharing that!

        Seems like Spaz may have crossed the line but it’ll take someone with deep pockets to take on Condé Nast publishing to find out.

      As long as you protest in a way that is ineffective, zero impact to Reddit, and makes good ol’ Spez feel special, you can protest all you want I guess?

      At least we now know that Reddit cares 0% for their users. Glad I migrated over.
