    Also remember that reddit loves to choose what goes on front page, have the worst mods ever and shadow banning. Those things should not be tolerated. I don’t mind if reddit disappear, it is pretty toxic.

        On Reddit specifically, these mods of large subreddits, for example Gallowboob, are appointed by Reddit staff. These appointed mods run hundreds of large subreddits per account and Reddit has quietly banned community moderators who opposed the appointed mods. So it’s not like a bad admin of a Lemmy instance as a bad Lemmy admin is simply a random person who decided to run a website. The power-tripping mods on Reddit are a deliberate decision by Reddit.

        Yeah, I’m pretty sure that’s by design. It’s powerful tool for pushing an agenda. Moderation only makes it more powerful.
