Reddit is sending strongly-worded messages to moderators of certain subreddits that are marked as NSFW (Not Safe For Work), telling them to remove the tag or face being removed.

When forced to make a choice between power or their principles, Reddit moderators are overwhelmingly choosing to abandon the latter.

Are they really? They dedicate their free time to give reddit their power. Reddit is now yelling at them to give power back to themselves despiteb years of saying the opposite.

I thought people on the Fediverse would be more appreciative of people doing volunteer work to maintain online communities but seems like a lot of users only think of mods when they get moderated or banned, not when the community is healthy and free from garbage.
