    Aren’t there subreddits where everyone who joins is a mod by default?

      Came here to say this as well. As funny as this would be if it were an accident, just prior to me going scorched earth on my accounts I saw several subreddits in protest that made everyone subscribed to their sub a mod, and confirmed it myself.

      It’s very likely a subreddit that the person was subbed to and forgot/didn’t know they were doing that.

      If I read the announcement correctly, that is implemented by a bot with mod privileges that parses comments and takes actions on users’ behalf. I don’t think it’s practical to literally make every user a moderator.

      On r/politicalhumor and r/madlads, the answer is yes. But you need subreddit karma to log mod actions. There is a bot running in those subs which facilitates it.

      I’m tempted to install the app and mod myself a /r/u_username sub just to see what chaos I can cause over on the big subs.

      … or is that what they EXPECT me to do…?

      Nope. The only winning move is not to play.

      Broken authorization is absurdly common, especially if they involve graphQl. I wouldn’t be surprised if it worked.

    I mentioned this on the crosspost thread (speaking of which, why crosspost? It just splits comments), but I digress:

    This could be because some subreddits went nuclear and made all users mods.

      why crosspost?

      I’m new to Lemmy and trying to learn how everything works. Also yeah I made everyone on r/madlads and r/politicalhumor a mod via the Mod Democracy Bot.

    This is genius because you basically grew your mod count for certain subreddits by “borrowing” from other subreddit mods.
