Maybe Reddit should’ve done that part first?

This feels like one of two things;

1- Their threats aren't actually working, and they don't have enough quality mods to replace the ones they've overthrown (as evidenced by subs where the mod teams were nuked remaining frozen)

2- PR move to pretend like they're listening and reduce anger.

Seriously, what is the point of this attempt AFTER they've nuked so many mods and users?

Edit: I feel like this comment is right on the money

better yet, they will listen but only in "small groups" of people "they pick" as to curate the the overall mod "response" and then will claim that all mods across all communities will share this same slated opinion.

Watch.

Why not both?

Definitely both.

you're not wrong.

I agree. This is a) a PR move and b) part of their "divide and conquer" strategy: They'll keep on schmoozing the mods who go along with Reddit's bullshit and keep on kicking out mods who aren't.

"We're sorry 😔 buy reddit premium to remain a mod"

Sounds like they'll be bringing turtle, everyone's favorite boot-licker, back with gusto. Good riddance.

Edit: Clearly @Hellsadvocate is your average turtle fan. Explains a lot, in hindsight.

Has to be #1, or I think they would have replaced the mods on /r/pics by now. They've silently removed mods from other big subs without much, if any justification already, so them not doing it in this case makes me think something is wrong.
