  • What are they expecting after they remove moderators and remove the nsfw status? That the users keep posting?

    Seems like they’re thinking exactly that. However, I expect many communities (especially niche communities) to revolt and start spamming unrelated content and straight up porn (or worse – gore). The current mechanism is to replace the mods with supermods (aka the ones who moderate over 100 communities or something) but I wonder if they will be able to effectively moderate that shit without going private.

    It’s quite hard to guess what will damage reddit the most. I hope that many niche communities collapse and migrate, but the issue also lies in mainstream communities. One thing is NonCredibleDefence moving. Another thing is stuff like r/manga (which went for a blackout but didn’t do much beside it).

    Lemmy is good, I hope more people move here, but so far it’s gonna be reliant on migrants from reddit and possibly twitter, which is not exactly a good plan
