People are literally crossing the digital picket line to scab unpaid moderator positions to do free work for admins who are using intimidation tactics against their moderator peers.
If there are mods here who are willing to work towards reopening this community, we are willing to work with you to process a Top Mod Removal request or reorder the mod team to achieve this goal if mods higher up the list are hindering reopening.
Translation: please snitch and we’ll give you control of the subreddit. We don’t have enough staff to moderate all the subreddits ourselves.

Ask in DM before posting product reviews or ads. All such posts otherwise are subject to removal.
Rules:
1: All Lemmy rules apply
2: Do not post low effort posts
3: NEVER post naziped*gore stuff
4: Always post article URLs or their archived version URLs as sources, NOT screenshots. Help the blind users.
5: personal rants of Big Tech CEOs like Elon Musk are unwelcome (does not include posts about their companies affecting wide range of people)
6: no advertisement posts unless verified as legitimate and non-exploitative/non-consumerist
7: crypto related posts, unless essential, are disallowed
How American of them. Install your own leaders when you don’t like what they’re doing with their self-governed community

Reddit is doomed
If your money, reputation, family, friends, career, etc it’s on the line, I can understand how people would fold under pressure.
You’d literally be walking away from someone who doesn’t respect you, and then asks you to work for free.
How spineless do you have to be?

/r/pics polled their users: stay closed, or only allow pics of John Oliver looking sexy?
They chose the latter.
It’s a brilliant move honestly
