A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

MODERATORS
Step 1: open the sub.
Step 2: make every member a moderator.
Step 3: watch the world burn.
One subreddit did this IIRC
One time i think r/darkhumor did a while ago like make random people mods (or is it r/darkjokes ??) and... yea lol
Can't be done unfortunately. There's a limit to how many pending moderator invites there can be. r/politicalhumor did the next best thing though.
What did they do?
They have a bot running that listens for certain commands in comments, so any user can lock a thread or do a bunch of different stuff just like a mod by commenting
