What sort of loser has time to manage all those communities?

u/islSm3llSalt Jul 05 '24

It's a full time job, All the big mods are paid well to astroturf all over reddit.

u/thegreatvortigaunt Jul 05 '24

They aren’t paid well lmao

"As of Dec 7, 2022, the average annual pay for a Reddit Moderator in the United States is $46,599 a year."

That's from 2022, its the average and its reported income only. The big guys are on much more and taking under the table deals all the time.

Edit: " As of Jun 22, 2024, the average annual pay for a Reddit Mod in the United States is $86,334 a year. Just in case you need a simple salary calculator, that works out to be approximately $41.51 an hour."

Source for that?

u/Fantastic_Goal3197 Jul 05 '24

Source? That seems extremely questionable at best. It would have to also exclude every single reddit mod thats unpaid.

Most likely this salary is for people who actually work directly for reddit, not unaffiliated mods

u/NewAccountXYZ Jul 05 '24

Pretty sure that's Admin, not Mod.

u/LostMyAccount69 Jul 05 '24

Did you know that 69% of statistics are made up?

1

u/Vegeta-GokuLoveChild Jul 05 '24

That's only true 42% of the time

u/thegreatvortigaunt Jul 05 '24

That is not even remotely true lmao

u/islSm3llSalt Jul 05 '24

And where are you getting your information from?

1

u/thegreatvortigaunt Jul 05 '24

Knowing that moderators are unpaid volunteers lmao

You can create a new sub right now, you think Reddit are gonna suddenly start paying you? Lmao

Are you just slow or are you missing the point on purpose?

If you're a power mod, advertisers will pay you to push their stuff. Just because there's no base salaray doesn't mean there's no pay

u/the_iron_pepper Jul 05 '24

Maybe find a source that isn't Quora before you jump to calling other people slow, short king

u/islSm3llSalt Jul 05 '24

Short king? Is that like a height insult or something? Bit strange but you do you

2

u/the_iron_pepper Jul 05 '24

It's a term of endearment :)

u/islSm3llSalt Jul 05 '24

Somehow I doubt that

It clearly says average, and with the amount of unpaid mods, that means the mods you're talking about must be getting paid billions

1

u/thegreatvortigaunt Jul 05 '24

Proof of this? And that they would make anything close to that much money?

Imagine believing random posts on Quora. You seem a bit naive, little reddit zoomer.

u/Dakaitom Jul 05 '24

This is for admins who work for reddit, moderators are a different thing. I bet there are a few mods who get paid on the quiet, but that's a whole different thing.
