Nothing like recreating a class of elites that work to guide the flow of public discourse in our digital spaces as well! It works so well in real life, why deviate from the formula?
I just really disliked seeing the same names over and over weaponizing their pettiness.
I wonder. There could only be one r/something, so if the mod was bad you were stuck. But there’s nothing to stop someone starting up another “something” community on another instance, if the mods suck in the first.
So maybe power mods will wither away in the Fediverse.
Power mods… Except they are already here and banning opinions they don’t like. Good thing it’s super easy to make a new account on here.
