I modded 2 niche communities, and it was a relief to leave and resign. I haven’t felt so free to express a real opinion in a long time. Even alts aren’t safe because you have an chair linguists.
Mods of bigger subs, good and bad do a job I wouldn’t ever want
I’m not sure where it ranked at the time but I remember when one of the subs hit 100k (this was circa 2014) and by the time I left we were close to 500k. When I checked before the blackout they were sitting at 1.9m.
You’re absolutely right about an alt not doing much, if you ever had time for that. Modding definitely affected my Reddit experience, even after stepping down, and combined with how it changed over the last several years, my participation went way down, maybe a handful of comments a month at best, and I lurked and upvoted/downvoted for the most part. I’m slowly shaking off those cobwebs in this exciting new space!
