The removals will happen by “end of week.”

Reddit has informed moderators of communities that are still private in protest that they will lose their mod status by the end of the week. Thousands of communities went dark earlier this month to push back on the company’s planned API pricing changes.

    They also likely cannot do it. While they were sending pms to mods they completely failed at targetting private and restricted subreddits that aren’t part of the protest, including ones that have been privated or restricted way before this month. And people saying there will always be people to replace the mods forgot how not-smooth that is going to go. Besides, the more Reddit antagonise its user base the more unstable it looks. It seems that despite the traffic returning to normal, many ads still haven’t returned.
