MODERATORS
Considering how they couldn't keep up the protest going because of threats of removal as moderators, I highly doubt they will achieve anything. People apparently need Reddit and they'll do whatever to have it no matter the cost.
Yeah I don't understand why some subs didn't migrate to a Lemmy instance and then shut the sun down. Like, antiwork and workreform are primed to be a federated community out of billionaires control...
I think we might see more migration after the Reddit apps die on July 1st

If they were bound to a union it could be different, but that'd require people be willing to enter a union contract in return for collective bargaining power.
