As some subreddits continue blackouts to protest Reddit’s plans to charge high prices for its API, Reddit has informed the moderators of those subreddits that it has plans to replace resistant moderation teams to keep spaces “open and accessible to users.”
Edit, there seems to be conflicting reporting on this issue:
While the company does “respect the community’s right to protest” and pledges that it won’t force communities to reopen, Reddit also suggests there’s no need for that.

I mean, it was pretty obvious that this was coming
It would be easier to report on when /u/spez isn’t lying about something.
Threatens? They already have!

Although they might just be salty about that post that hit top of all a few days ago?..
Reddit gonna reddit. It’s better here. They are a company making money off us, we ARE us. I’m on lemmy train baby take me down the line!
Choo Choo my friend, Choo Goddamn Choo!!! :)
I JUST read a post that spez said he’s not going to do that…
Well, maybe not him personally…
For a company that says they don’t threaten people, they sure do have a lot of rumors about threatening people.
