I'm curious, what is your experience modding subreddits?

Where is this conversation going? "You don't know how hard mods have it ;( ?"
I think subreddits are better off without mods. Therefore, I have never modded one.

You might enjoy /r/interesting as fuck. They removed all rules except the sitewide rules. It seems to be mostly porn and OF spam now.

I modded a small programming sub for a while (at least several years). Maybe a post per day type of sub.
It was basically no effort. Occasionally, someone would post spam, users would report it, and I’d go “yep, that sure is spam. Remove”. It was just another “mindless action” to take during Reddit time.
I’m sure larger subs are exponential harder to mod.

> small program lying sub
I'm struggling to parse this, maybe partly because of the other small sub that's in the news atm.

Sorry, I’m running iOS 17 Beta. Autocorrect is very good, but slightly different and I don’t notice some of my typos.
Meant to type “programming sub”
