Reddit is reaching out to moderators after tensions rose over recent policy changes and API pricing. A Reddit admin acknowledged the strained relationship and outlined new weekly feedback sessions and other outreach efforts to repair ties. However, moderators remain skeptical of Reddit’s efforts given mixed results from past initiatives. Many mods feel Reddit has been unwilling to make meaningful changes to address their concerns like more accessible API pricing or exemption for accessibility apps. After a tumultuous few months, moderators have very low expectations that Reddit’s latest efforts will result in real changes.

    Just f quit, let it all burn. The problem is moderators often enjoy that little power & importance they have & are perhaps addicted to that a little. Am I wrong?

      You might be right for some of them, but I don’t think there’s anything wrong with them enjoying a little power and importance, especially if it’s in relation to a community that they are connected with. But I agree with you that it might be a good idea to at least consider quitting, since it’s likely that Reddit is just going to get worse as it becomes increasingly controlled by dead-eyed shareholders.
