This implies slavery. Mods do their very real job for free. By being forced to operate, they are being exploited for their labor.
Dude, no, they can just walk away.
Still under duress- their comm / work will be thefted if they do.
they cultivated the subs. At best this is a bait and switch, at worst this is simply theft through technology.
Antiwork? Really? Out of all possible communities I would expect this one to remain locked. Reddit might as well sticked their collective dick into a beehive.
Well that seems to be their strategy of choice with this debacle
Reddit is making some funny moves here that I reckon will backfire - forcing antiwork to reopen considering it’s likely a community with strong feelings about strikes and action. They’ve also forced piracy to reopen, which I reckon might backfire on them too.
Oh, the irony
I wonder if this came about because of internal conflict in the mod team. I’ve received zero threats from reddit to reopen and mod some subs that are larger than antiwork.
