    The mods have been removed, but in spite of what the admin said they haven’t been replaced. The sub is in restricted mode, effectively read only.

    Reddit is slowly turning into a graveyard.

      And good luck finding replacement moderators who are knowledgeable and passionate about the subject.

        Like Spez cares about little things like “passion” and being “factually correct”.

          Spez doesn’t, of course. But the quality of the subreddit will suffer and the users will care about that.

          r/formula1 is most likely modded by people from Liberty Media

          You can use old.reddit.com to bypass that, at least for now.

      They did the same with interestingasfuck. The subs are basically dead. As soon as they leave restricted mode, the subs will be flooded with shitposts and porn. No way to moderate a turned hostile community.

        The mods should have reopened the subs and quiet quit - no rules other than reddit’s rules.
