  • If you want something changed on Reddit, pass it on to the press. Back in the day they let sexually suggestive material of minors on their site because it gathered clicks. Did you guys forget r/jailbait?

    They only stopped it when one of the mods got doxxed and it was reported in news articles.

    I repeat: Reddit stopped pedo shit only because it generated negative attention.

    I’m sure there are enough journalists out there who would love to write about Reddit allowing SA material on their website.

    That’s kinda normal for a lot of Reddit mods really. I remember a legal advice mod who banned lawyers because they wouldn’t agree with him and who thought he knew it better (turned out he was utterly wrong). Or that maniac in the guitar sub who straight up bans people for mentioning a certain type of guitar. Or that one time I got banned from BLM because I dared to comment on a funny post in the shitpost sub. Which in itself was kinda funny.

    You have to understand that mods aren’t any different from users. Some are ok, some make mistakes and some others are complete fucking idiots not able to understand the damage they cause.

    Usually that’s where admins step in, but unlike Lemmy, Reddit admins just sit on their title (almost certainly with a golden chocolate medallion around their neck) and jerk off all day long.
