In what fucking world??? How is it a step in the right direction? This “outreach” is no more than damage control. It’s a company realizing they fucked up, and wanting to mitigate PR damage without actually fixing their shitty practices.
A sucker’s born every minute.
“I’m sorry I hit you baby. I won’t do it again. And this is a chance for us to reflect on why you deserved it.”
Okay!
Nah, they just want the mod teams back until they can recruit a team of sycophants to replace them.
This is no different than your old job calling you a week after you quit offering you more money to come back.
Yeah, I do wonder if that’s what they want - bring back the old moss while having the new moss help out under the guise of “they are providing additional support to make your life easier!”
That gives the new mods free training and then Reddit can axe the old mods again. or maybe I am giving them too much credit.
If I had a penny for every time a corporate figurehead says they’ll be more transparent and will engage with the users more but then they just don’t or do the opposite, I could buy reddit from Huffman
