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.

get ready for sudden and radical rule changes, non enforcement of rules, nsfw, bots, spam, all kinds of fun crazy shit in the subs with mods removed. I'm sure a percentage of subs would stay the same, but I don't think that percentage is very high.
Don’t forget there are literally Nazis being employed as Mods
Finally! Godwin's law!
I can already hear the CPA/affiliate marketing bots spinning up lol.
Man, I was mod for a tiny subreddit for a TV show that was niche. We still got slammed with bots, nsfw, spam, etc. I can't imagine what the big subs are like, and I laugh at Reddit trying to insert their people into that situation.
I'm mod of one and I'm worried about that kicking up, I feel like I'm not ready. Any recommendations?
Just make it part of your routine to check on things. Encourage your users to report spam, etc.
