I briefly modded a subreddit (before deleted my account in the blackout).

It was neat at fist, but then it basically became people getting uptight about everything. “Your rules don’t say we can’t posted obvious spam”, “you need a transparent process for appealing things”, “mod suck here”.

Like, I don’t care enough to provide a service for a multi-billion dollar company. If you don’t like it, start your own sub.

Yep. Most people don't read the rules, and are then surprised when we remove posts or comments. Some get very angry when we don't allow them to post wildly off topic content, or outright spam. I had to make an alt account after someone started sending death threats.

What strange creatures people are.
