Reddit could operate without subreddit moderators. The main reason mods exist is to remove abusive users and bots, both of witch could be handled by the vote system.
I don’t think Reddit could operate without moderators. On a technical level, sure it’s possible, but as a business they would not be able to operate. If the content didn’t have a reputation of being vibrant, interesting, and reliable, no one would use the site and they’d have no income. Reddit’s business is only possible with moderators there to cultivate their communities and keep things civil.
no they dont. they literally have a system to democratically promote or suppress posts.
No, I mean Reddit runs entirely on subreddits for its business, and the infrastructure requires a moderator to exist to create them.
