It’s going to be a lot harder to pull off massive protests.

It’s not like they couldn’t put a stop to blackouts before, as seen with the third-party app fiasco, but Reddit has now made that tactic entirely impossible. Mods will now need to get permission from Reddit admins before they can make a sub private. Makes me wonder if they’re about to do something controversial again soon.

    Community mods are not the same thing as reddit staff (admin)… I mean probably sometimes they can be the same person, but not normally.

      I see. Well then my bad for misunderstanding this. To me moderators are Reddit staff working for free. But I see that the word “staff” was used literally.

      See you in the oblivion. xD
