They're finally limiting the abuse of the so-described 'powermods' in Reddit. It only took fifteen years or more, rofl. (twitter.com)

Reddit will always be a DNC-controlled cesspit.

And these power mods will simply create alt accounts and keep on power modding. Only difference is now it won't be so blatantly obvious

If I use an alt. account and accidentally upvote a comment in a subreddit that my main account was banned in then reddit will permanently nuke all my accounts for “ban evasion”

Make your predictions:

A - This will apply to powermods

B - Rules for thee, not for me

This is so late the horse is not only long gone out the gate but already holding together thousands of wargaming models together as glue.

This will hit trauma-informed, medical, advocacy, and human rights spaces the hardest

Is anyone surprised?

I’m imagining a 400lb mod with a fetish for all those subreddits and using his influence to groom any kids who accidentally wander into his lair

I recognize that name. Little creep always posts videos titled like "masked thugs kidnaps mother, community stands up for her" for a video where ICE is busting a drug dealer and the activists that follow ICE around town are harassing and endangering the agents

I don’t trust a single word coming from that place.

It's already been suggested that the 'powermods' will simply use alts to maintain their stranglehold on Reddit. And the weirdos in the admin team will turn a blind eye, in light of the 'fellow weirdo' kinship and all.

Oh noes!

This will hit those digital spaces with harassment, misinformation and exploitation.

I mean MORE harassment, misinformation and exploitation - just not from the side of the Reicht Side of History© type.

I'm glad that there will now be fewer people 'thinking of the children' in positions of trust over on Deddit.

I don’t think that’s sustainable by Reddit.

If anything this will lead to the consolidation or outright shutdown of subreddits to the big ones that Reddit wants and makes the narrative even easier to control.

So putting the control in even fewer hands will fix moderation? Lol

All this means is the admins have to deal with fewer mods now that subs can't have thousands of mods.

How did you manage to read the exact opposite of what that said?

Because less power mods means less mods overall. After all, Reddit keeps minimizing the power of mods because they want more of them, right. Lol, common sense and math are hard.
