    Hopefully… there’s another post on /c/lemmyworld stating that /r/adviceanimals forcibly removed the top moderator.

    I’m guessing that they will replace all of the mod teams and forcibly re-open the subreddits.

      Called it.
      Still he’s going to end up with a site with lesser quality and mods that will have a harder time to moderate until the supposed new tools actually work (if they actually work).

      Honestly? I think 4chan could have a field day trolling in there like they love to do.

          Oh yeah, I agree they are unpredictable, I don’t count on it but I don’t doubt it would be an easy target

      Oh I am sure they’re going to end up putting back a large number of subs. It’s going to happen. The place will fill up with trash if there aren’t good dedicated mods taking care of things but I’m sure the admins are going to force the major subs to reopen.

        I think taking over subs will lead to a chain reaction of other subs blacking out again in protest ad nauseum. Good luck getting enough moderators to fill the void. He’ll end up with a smaller number of generic large subs full of mediocre content for people he can more easily monetize; exactly what he wants.

      Doubt that will go as well as they’re expecting it to.

      I guess I understand why subreddits cannot be deleted altogether, but BOY it’d be nice to see. Or at least delete all the content before leaving… 👀
