Will it be effective?

Spoiler

No, it was not very effective.

If you scroll down to about a day ago, you might be able to observe an emerging behavior from this mod.

EDIT 2: The mod in question moderates a total of 108 Lemmy communities. How deep does this conspiracy run? Is this mod a lost Redditor? More to come!

EDIT 3: The mod has now removed my comment all together, one might assume because it was still receiving upvotes in the 2 hours following my ban. Are there similarities here to Watergate? You be the judge!

    What was the name of that mod on reddit with 5k communities? I remember they were very well known, but it’s been a long time since having an account there.

      It sounds crazy to hear someone mods 5k communities or 108 until you put eyes on them and realize most are dead, functionally dead, or memes. I modded 100+ subreddits on reddit when I was there, the drop in population after about the fifth was massive. After about 15 or so we were at truly inconsequential populations.

        I do wonder however if it suggests things about a person, that they moderate that many communities. For instance, is it indicative of power seeking behavior?

      Could have been any of a few dozen.

      That being said, there were a couple that were automod only mods. They’d get added to help set up and maintain automod, and never do anything else.
