That's all fine and well. I mod a couple of large subs but I exclusively use desktop so I'm not affected.

I just don't think mods should be ending the communities, most of which they didn't start themselves. Let other people who don't share their issues take over.

You might be a desktop user (I am too) but Reddit is more than just you and me - it's the communities of people who choose to socialize there. And I have a hunch that Reddit chasing away the kinds of people who tend to use third-party apps is going to have a ripple effect on the quality of the communities contained on the site, not to mention bots that aren't covered under the various exemptions.

Those communities will only end when Reddit does. The only question is how long it will take to reopen and if there is a new moderation team or not.

[Doubt]


Why? I'm just a normal user, but 98% of my redditing was done on old.reddit


Because /large/ sub modding requires third party tools.


lol why?

I use old.reddit with RES, toolbox and some ublock rules and all is good.
