I'm a counter example. I contributed on Reddit, moderated my own subreddit with a couple of thousand viewers; couple of tens of contributors
I haven't been back to that sub, haven't appointed any other mods. If automod can't handle shit, shit isn't being handled
I have been back to other subs. There are small inoffensive places on Reddit that simply haven't moved
I still visit those subs, still write on them, just not nearly as often
Edit to add: checking today, those subs are becoming less good. With no good app, so many of the prolific commenters don't comment much now. I also had a reply to a 2015 comment I made. I thought stuff was auto-archived much quicker than that
