    I was a mod for a community of over 100k. Being a mod sucked. It was dealing with entitled users who wanted you to run the sub to their liking, nuking spammers and trolls, and basically caring for it like it was a digital baby.

    I did most of my moderation in RIF.

    I nuked my account and deleted it when the other moderators voted to reopen the sub. Lemmy life for me now.
