MODERATORS
I'll be honest. I really do feel their argument about open registrations is a weak one. Reddit is effectively open registration. The only thing you need on Reddit is an email and then you're in.
The moderation tools are a fair point. I really do feel like they really want to make in their eyes a safe space. Which is their perogative but not something I personally vibe with given how much they are deleting and removing. I've rarely had to step in as a moderator in the places I run, most people are behaving. One total person I had to ban and they were not from Lemmy.World.
You donβt even need an email address for Reddit
Around 2017 they started requiring it, I think? I told a friend a few years back to make an account and he refused due to the email requirement
If you use old.reddit.com, when it asks you to enter an email address, just click next without entering an email address.
Before they killed Reddit, I frequently made new accounts for privacy reasons, as recently as maybe a month or two ago. Email was not required.
