Some of Reddit’s most popular communities have posted open letters to the company with a series of requests regarding many key issues at the heart of the recent protests on the platform. They want a response by June 29th.

Why do you think it needs to be able to be monetized for people to care about modding? I would imagine that most good-faith mods are passionate about the communities they're modding and the subjects they're about, and they care about them because they want to see them thrive and not be overrun by bad actors.

My cynical perspective comes from seeing some power grabbing greed here on Lemmy. Since I joined 2 weeks ago. It's also that I'm curious about it, without having ever modded, here or on Reddit.
