I hope the major subs stay dark. The only thing keeping reddit afloat is moderators. Without tools the mods would need full time paid positions which is never going to happen. I'd like to see them all burn. Its become a shit show of adds and bots now anyway. Good riddance. I wish someone would incorporate freenets web of trust system to some type of decentralized app like this.

Could they not replace the mods? In the end, don’t they own the subreddits? Who owns the intellectual property?

They'd have to find people as enthusiastic. Quality would likely drop.

They'd also need to find a ridiculous amount of people (~28,000 mods according to Reddark?). Or have fewer people be insanely overworked, either way you're right; quality will drop.
