    Could they not replace the mods? In the end, don’t they own the subreddits? Who owns the intellectual property?

        Quality would absolutely drop. Even if whoever replaced the mods was just as enthusiastic, losing that much institutional knowledge/inertia would be devastating for a while.

        They’d also need to find a ridiculous amount of people (~28,000 mods according to Reddark?). Or have fewer people be insanely overworked, either way you’re right; quality will drop.

      In a lot of ways we do. If I choose to delete my profile, there goes a ton of posts from one sub.

          Good to know. If it comes to that I will. Anyone who spends any amount of time adding to a community though is like killing your own creation. I did this for us.
