people make videos for tiktok which is for phones and oriented as such. people then repost them to youtube. similarly, youtube shorts are made to copy the tiktok style. So yes, there's a lot of people who watch shortform videos on their phone.
It's under rule 4 "be active and engaged":
Camping or sitting on a community is not encouraged. If a community has been empty or unmoderated for a significant amount of time, we will consider banning or restricting the community. If a user requests a takeover of a community that falls under either category, we will consider granting that request but will, in nearly all cases, attempt to reach out to the moderator team first to discuss their intentions for the community.
I think this is just the same as submitting a regular link lol
I'd hope for just general debate/discussion kinda thing. not necessarily debunking one off view. also debunkthis kinda sounds like it's not really room for debate idk. I guess we'll see :)
lol. in actuality I mod some smaller subs like /r/timetravel, /r/paneldepon, and /r/girlgames.
private means that only invited people can use the sub. this is allowed per reddit rules. however, the large subs went private not genuinely, but in protest to prevent people from using it. this falls under sub squatting and vandalism meaning a violation of the moderator code of conduct.
Theoretically they could invite some people and use the sub as normal just as a private sub, and they'd follow the rules fine. but that's not what happened.
it isn't in theory. but admins are saying it violates moderator code of conduct by vandalizing a community (which is against reddit rules). Private subs are allowed, but sub squatting and vandalizing are not. theoretically, they could just invite a few people and have a "low activity sub" but still engage as normal while keeping the sub silent. thus no vandalism occurred, nor squatting, but rather just a change in preference of the community (being more private/exclusive).
reddit admins have full control over their site so yes they could force subs to open.
Reddit moderators do not get paid and afaik there's no plan to pay moderators.

I'm liking these "malicious compliance" reopenings lol
reddit has private messaging and a chat feature as well.
