Why not just stop moderating? (lemmy.world)

I was thinking that this could be the way to truly kill a sub. Let it descend to the noise, the chaos, the spam, and the hatred. Maybe do the least bit to stem claims that it's unmoderated.

If people are interested in devaluing Reddit, it seems like a good place to start

Reddit typically bans unmoderated subreddits. For any larger ones that would impact revenue, they'll just push in new mods.

Doesn't it usually take them a while to figure out it's unmoderated? Even longer if it's badly moderated?

On a few of the tiny subs I modded on, we'd just approve everything by default unless someone reported it, or it was like, illegal content (cp, etc.).
