It takes more than warm bodies to maintain a large community. There’s tons of people lining up because they imagine being a moderator of a large sub is a power trip. What they’ll actually find is that the job sucks. There’s not a whole lot of power tripping to be had. It’s mostly boring administration, filtering out obvious trash, all for the low low price of free.

I foresee a ton of turn over as scabs abandon post and Reddit admins scramble to keep finding more fresh meat to grind.
