Reddit's sad and sorry war with its community continues, with a group of moderators from the site's most popular groups posting open letters to Reddit management. The letters are slightly different, but all of them call for Reddit to find ways to make 3rd party apps viable, improve 1st party moderation tools, promise to give mods "no less than one fiscal quarter" warning before making major changes, hire a moderator advocate that occupies a senior-level position within management and many more demands. I'd love to know if Reddit's traffic and/or revenue has been impacted by any of these protests. It feels like management is happy to ride it out and just kick out any misbehaving moderators, replacing them with scabs. It's just business, baby.
