It is confirmed that Reddit is forcing subreddits to open again. This is according to /r/antiwork moderators.

@vertana It is insanely ironic that #reddit is forcing r/antiwork to... work.

😂

@yoasif Over at /r/ModCoord they are complaining about exactly that. How much labor cost have they saved Reddit over the years? They’re daring them to replace old hat mods with new mods that only use the Reddit official tools lol.
@vertana @yoasif Idc if I’m sounding like a broken record, but why don’t the mods of each popular sub pick a fediverse platform, and link it to give users the choice to migrate?
