Main points: He plans to make moderators popularly elected to more easily vote them out.

Hopes the next frontier will be subreddits as businesses.

He does not want Reddit employees to take on the work. Moderator hours were valued at 3.2 million last year, 3% of reddit’s revenue.

So you do all that work for nothing just to be able to be voted out? 😂

Yeah, way fewer people will be willing to put in the effort modding if they can just be voted out. And subreddits that are supposed to represent minority opinions will just get voted out by the opposition.
