time will show if old mods and 3p apps are that critical, since both are removed now.
time already shew, since the subreddits exist as they are now obviously taking what they built and saying "I built this" wouldn't show anything but spez's pettiness

could you give a link?
No, no . If you purport to know what redditors supposedly want, you can read the OP and simply go to the listed subreddits and see the top posts for the votes/announcements . edit: I mean let's be real, you've been panning for reddit for two weeks. You're concern trolling asking for links.
The only real end to this is reddit taking ownership over moderation, and hiring paid moderators for all the subreddits, turning off user created subreddits. Maybe it'll also mean turning off user generated content too, and only have admin made posts, the same as Digg did. They could hire the power-users to keep making the relevant posts. People you don't have on contract are a liability
> The only real end to this is reddit taking ownership over moderation, and hiring paid moderators for all the subreddits, turning off user created subreddits. how so? there are more than enough moderators left who have no issue with reddit's current behaviour and will continue modding for free.
I guess they could audit submission history, but there's a chance of that blowing up as users decide the mods are shills. I've rarely seen Reddit as mad as when they decide someone is a shill, and the vitriol is likely to make the new mods' lives hard. Especially so if they're new mods, and aren't as used to people hurling insults and maybe death threats at them (I don't know how likely death threats are, but it seems like everyone with any online visibility gets them these days).
I'm sure they could eventually find mods, but I think there will be chaos in that process. I guess the question is whether they're willing to extend the current chaos to keep free moderation, or if they'd rather pony up some money to end it now.
Edit: added "free" in the last paragraph, last sentence between "keep" and "moderation"

> So this is clearly just about getting back that monetization. and back that normal experience of millions of readers of those subreddits.
Moderators should have thought of all the people that can't live without their daily "fix" before interrupting their volunteer work for a few days, right.

there are more than enough sex offenders willing to step up and replace daycare employees, that doesn't mean it's a good idea

Reddit is a burning ship and no one can put out the fire now no matter what they do when they piss off their user base like this.
I plan to leave the platform in some spectacular way in a short time.

reddit team's contribution in "building" is not smaller than those mods.

of course it is: reddit hosts bulletin boards, the community (mods included) built the subreddits (both creating content and attracting new users to them)
And current power mods who declared they own subreddits also not all mods (current and past), but unknown share of them.
