Why do the mods care so much? Can anyone point me to an explainer of how can mods monetize their modding? I also don't understand why I see people here on Lemmy modding dozens of communities or looking to be mods of communities their posting history says nothing of.

im confused why people a. think spez had enough control to make these decisions. b. that killing the 3rd party apps wasnt the point.
almost zero notice, exorbitant costs for stripped access...
there was never going to be a compromise. 'they' want to wall their garden, and thats all she wrote

Can't imagine what they could deliver that would bring Apollo or RIF back.
These people invested so much time and effort into their communities, I understand why they are doing all this to keep them

They should just do what I did. So being a mod and leave. Fuck em.
They're going to do a ridiculous price that is technically lower, but is still highway robbery.... You just wait.
I think even that is generous, I doubt they will even bother responding
Dorks.
It seems like this is the only way that Reddit can slow the rise of the Fediverse to me. All of their official access channels (web/official app) pale in comparison to the usability of third party apps.
