Already, r/all is now a lot more of strange subreddits (trurateme?) that really shouldn't be there and were founded on much smaller communities.

If what the mods say about their tools is in fact true, then:

Next, you're going to see a lot more spam as mods tools are gone and most of America is on a long weekend with a family holiday at the end.

Next, the spammers are going to quickly figure out the mods are asleep/gone and up the crap game even more.

Next, the creeps are going to post more less-than-kosher material, with reporting of it essentially going into unread inboxes by overworked mods.

Next, r/all is going to be, well, boring and gross. All the spam will make you go, huh, that's not very interesting. All the less-than-kosher stuff is going to make you go yuck.

Then, you're going to say to yourself, we'll see how long this lasts. And if it lasts until ~July 8th or so, you'll have found your next reddit fix.

Again, all predicated on what the mods are saying is true.

If anything can hurt Reddit, it's that kind of material. Advertisers really, really don't like controversial content, and are the first to pull out of any service that even smells of controversy or political incorrectness, see what happened to Twitter revenues after the Musk takeover. The Reddit protests would have been far more effective if people started posting (and/or moderators stopped removing) gore, porn and Swastikas everywhere, maybe with a sprinkling of racism and homophobia on top.

I can't wait. Reddit will not be able to afford moderation like FB/Twitter (which already isn't sufficient) and will run afoul of content laws in multiple countries. Sweet karma.
