No wonder so many mods were licking Reddit's boots.

Some were licking the boot because reddit promised ways to monetize subs during a Mod Summit ~2 years ago (business model would be taking a cut of all transactions happening on their platform). I quit modding shortly after and then reddit entirely so I'm not sure if they ever implemented this. Even if they didn't, mods will remember that promise.
