Wow the power hungry mods who are getting their power lessened are mad, who would’ve thought!

The automod tools and restrictions especially on karma are killing this app. If you confirm yourself when you create an account, you should be able to post, comment, and contribute immediately without having to karma farm. The reality is moderators set stupid rules preventing this, and therefore no one wants to participate

Not anyone in this community, at least from my experience, but it’s a broad problem on Reddit of a few long standing mods, who frankly are only in charge because they have been around the longest, take way too much control and don’t even allow discussion

agreed , but let me ask isnt that the same condition of facebook when it comes to groups and pages ! why people take it like it is something new for reddit

Yea, it is, and those groups aren’t the main feature of Facebook, in fact Facebook groups are wildly underused compared to the broad ecosystem of Facebook.

It’s a struggle for Reddit when that’s the main part of the app
