In a comment shared by r/Apple moderator @aaronp613, Reddit cited its Moderator Code of Conduct and said that it has a duty to keep communities “relied upon by thousands or even millions of users” operational. Mods who do not agree to reopen subreddits that have gone private will be removed.
If a moderator team unanimously decides to stop moderating, we will invite new, active moderators to keep these spaces open and accessible to users. If there is no consensus, but at least one mod wants to keep the community going, we will respect their decisions and remove those who no longer want to moderate from the mod team.
You must log in or # to comment.
Oh, so they do care that there’s a blackout? Lol.
Glad the blackout is doing something.
So, basically if the entirety of mods on a sub decides to leave, Reddit will pretty much takeover and, by looking at how they treated the community, that sub can be pretty much considered lost.
Oh I can’t wait when the shit hits the fan!
The mods on the sub I mod are debating just going down or opening and setting it as nsfw so reddit doesn’t get ad revenue
