    Why continue to mod it then? Let the place wreck itself with whatever nefarious modder shows up to do the dirty work.

        I was never a mod, but i was an avid reddit user for close to 15 years. It was a sad day when I deleted my accounts, and it wasn’t a decision i made lightly.

          Same, around 2008 was when I first discovered it and even with Lemmy as replacement it feels now like something is missing from my life. However, browsing Reddit and supporting spez with every second I spend there was the worst feeling, so this will have to do.

            I have hope that lemmy/kbin can be the new reddit. I hope so. It seems to be getting a lot of users. I mean, kbin gained 10K users since yesterday morning

              The number of users is a possible indicator, sure, but 100k lurkers produce less value for other users than a single shitposter reposter poster.

              That is to say: How many posts per day does the average community get? Nobody goes to the Memes community for a sense of belonging. Gief memes plx.

      Mods spent countless hours on building those communities. They still care too much to just leave. There’s still some hope left I guess.

      If they don’t mod it the admins will take it away and install new bootlicker mods who’ll bend the knee, they’ve already said as much.
