Reddit was always too greedy to pay moderators. I can't believe how many idiots line up to do a multi billion dollar company's work for free.

Well, a lot of people had a false assumption going in. The idea was that reddit was providing a free service hosting mutually interactive forums. Generally, if you'd run a forum, it was your forum, with all the benefits and drawbacks that entails.

Reddit even pretended that was true for a long time.

People thought they were working for themselves and their community.
