What Reddit fails to understand with their decades of industry experience and 2k employees is that without their users, they don't have a product. Moderators work for free. Creators work for free. These people didn't do it for Reddit. They did it for you and me.
And then like three developers in their spare time ate their lunch.
I think they do understand this, to a point. That's why they keep threatening their mods instead of outright removing them.
