In this video I discuss ways that Redditers have been protesting the changes to Reddits API and the CEOs reaction to protests as well as Lemmy becoming more popular in the wake of the John Oliver spam and NSFW content being posted on popular subreddits.

@@jimmycarburator2012 Well some of them don't, since a briber wants to be sure his money achieve some results so a literal who mod of some literal who subreddit isn't going to be picked for a bribe. Ironically this can be said for IRL janitors too, since even he does it for free (or even for a low pay), he still has access to a potentially locked area for espionage purposes or just a general datamining purpose of who goes where and when on daily basis in a public space. The latter is somewhat phased out by having cameras everywhere, but people might be wary of the cameras, while they are indifferent to the same janitor being there for several days and it's harder to fool janny's vision mechanically.

6:00 Personally, I've leveraged the Wayback Machine/Google Web Cache to be able to see posts from subreddits that have been privated. I don't participate in subreddits usually unless I have valuable technical advice to share, in subreddits like r/degoogle, r/linux, etc. Between my adblocker and a crawler that copied the data to a completely different website, I doubt Reddit has any way at all to profit off of these accesses, or even know that I did it. That's the power of archival, people. And the ultimate way to screw over social media sites, short of, I dunno, hackers straight up attacking the service in all-out digital warfare and people showing up at Reddit HQ IRL with pitchforks trying to break in and burn the place down. They don't have the right to pretend that the data we post belongs to them, and we should not be pretending that they do. If they want to own and profit off of our data so much, then shouldn't they need to pay up for any copyright infringement we may engage on in their behalf? That's the natural responsibility of implicitly claiming content ownership, after all. You don't get to privatize the profits and socialize the losses. People hate socialism so much, but y'all unknowingly been thrust into it too, and you ain't even getting any of the good parts! Only the bad? How can you not revolt?

@@shadesoftime No, it isn't, because they do not own the content. You cannot claim that someone pirated something from you when it isn't yours, either. And in this case, our uploads belong to us, not the social media platform that we posted them on. They aren't copyrightable material anyway, since ToSes love to claim that you grant them the legal rights to your content and yet dare refuse to hold any accountability for it in the same sentence (which has no real basis in law), but between bad, contradictory lawmaking and contracts tending to overcorrect in favor of corporations in ways that could never fly if regulatory guidelines of any capacity existed at all, I personally chose to give zero fucks about these lies. And I call them lies because their core foundations are based on an imaginary, contradictory reality that does not exist, and is even impossible, logically, to work as implied. This makes the legislation itself absolute nonsense. When I said I agreed to the terms and conditions, I lied. Obviously I lied. Everyone does. And everyone knows. That checkbox for a unilateral "agreement" that people literally, scientifically do not have time to read does not, and cannot replace a real, proper contract negotiation where both parties got to discuss the terms, and the law is full of BS for pretending that it does. So why are we all pretending they're valid if nothing about them makes any sense?

I haven't used reddit in years, so I have no skin in this fight. I just find the entire situation ironic and hilarious. The only reason I would want to see reddit maintain its users is because I don't want all those pathetic cardboard personalities flooding into more freedom of speech-sites I use, bitching and moaning about nonsense, begging for more moderation and censorship. The way I view it, Reddit and Twitch are containers for people I don't want to interact with.

The primary reason to be a mod, overtly anyway. Is actually to help maintain a favorite Community. For example I frequented a fan sub for a series of novels. A mod spot opened, and after a while one of the frequent users took it. Why? To make sure certain Spoilers rules and stuff were maintained, which upholds the discussion for everyone. The lore discussion was its main appeal, but that included certain tasks that made the place appealing for new and old users. Of course people with little decency, and less prospects, are also attracted to power. Karens. However that mod never used it incorrectly, and was the one I saw there last. Now, I had stopped using it for anything besides those few fan theory and lore discussion reasons. So that is a bit of a different culture. Still I think it is actually representative of a primary reasoning in being a Reddit moderator.

@chucksfeedandseed Mods are also for that. Upholding the rules. On a smaller sub, that’s not a huge issue. Really my point leaves open other priorities for other types of subs too. Not every sub will have the same priorities. As for spoilers, personally I don’t care much. But it’s a huge draw for engagement to have them marked appropriately. So you can ask questions about the series as you go through them. I don’t think it’s unfair to have a place for that. Like I said, it’s where the two meet. The new readers and old. Anyway, if you don’t like that, you don’t have to go to those kinds of subs or forums. And you can make your own.

Yes, there’s a lot of power tripping mods out there. Any position of power of any sort will attract unscrupulous types of folks. But at the same time, sometimes you need an authority figure to keep a group in order and on the main topic… Which is actually a little depressing now that I think about.
