MODERATORS
Let's be real... as long as people act like brainless animals, there will be zoos they enjoy being in. Reddit lost nothing, sooner than later more and more people will more and more give in and everything will go back to how reddit was. The number of people who care is miniscule.
Reddit took a calculated risk and they probably allowed for a wide margin of error.
IMO Reddit's risk is paying off. Lemmy isn't a replacement and tons of people are still using it daily.
I wouldn't even call it "calculated"... they calculated nothing... they can always rely on the puppies going back and drooling all over reddit.
Normies just don't care about this stuff. Simple as.
