Think this case in particular is pretty interesting. Former default subreddit and one of the largest on the site (Top 20 at least).
I think /r/videos is where we’ll see how things actually play out with the reddit admins. I’m guessing at some point the admins will step in and replace the mods.
I’m enjoying the drama just a bit too much I think. There’s something quite satisfying when the ‘product’ bites back.
The apathy spez has for the users is on show every time he does anything.
Sure it’s entertaining to watch, and thanks to all the commotion I decided to give Lemmy a try, and glad I did! Now I’ve even got my own instance running. Sort of feels like setting up an old school BBS, back when MajorBBS was a thing.
The reality of the situation is that a large proton of Reddit users still aren’t even aware of what is going on. My wife mostly lurks, and had no idea of the current situation. We both primarily use the native mobile app, although I also have a paid version of Apollo.
