Left or have made things difficult for the admins.
Got the “You must reopen within 3 days” crap from the admins. Opened it, but they got the monkey paw as well. Set it such that every comment/post has to have an insanely long line of gibberish in order to get past AutoModerator. No one can comment, post or even edit now. Once the admins go away, I’ll re-privatize it.
In other cases, we had great mods step down with others opting to stick around so we can pin a link to the new home in the Fediverse (e.g., /r/android pointing to !android@lemdro.id).
They IP banned me and my subs were pretty niche and small. This included all my alts that I used for very specific subs (like FO76) to prevent doxing. But I was pretty vocal on their BS and that was that…
Did the mods leave on their own or were they thrown out after the blackout?
I think a bit of both
Spez called them “landed gentry” so most of them ( with self respect anyway) left.
