Best moderators are ones, who slowly over the sand of time, volunteered to descend into the void, have en masses and propelled Reddit to Internet stardom.
What kind of CEO fires all those precious volunteers and their millions of manhours?
Now he wants different volunteers this time, and fast. Good luck.
Reddit CEO is going to have to pay (thru the nose) to get the same decent moderation from new moderators.
Amazingly rebellious comments on this thread, pretty much all that I read there talk about restoring the original moderator and then mention an expletive in regards to the CEO of Reddit.
Nice to see humanity at work rather than an algorithm.
Do you want this unpaid job, from which we can lay off you anytime regardless the effort put in it by you. Send us your resume and previous experience in the field.
The arrogance of these tech companies has no limits.

Those aren't cheap, or even stress-free.
(at first, I misread as Internet Research Agency, that Russian's Wagner Group counterintelligence, right?)

Terrible year for tech.

86 people work at Reddit with the title "UX Designer" -- 86 people. What on earth do these people do?
Reddit has some of the worst UX, and moreover, it hasn't changed in years. Years.
Nothing seems like it's quite designed to fit, or ever tested... they bolted on a chat feature, but it doesn't really work with "old" Reddit.
A ton of settings seem... just 90's-era seems about the best way to put it.
But seriously, 86 people do UX at Reddit.
No possible way that's correct.
And rather then let chat work on mobile it pushes you to download the app.
But if you say, “Send the desktop site…” from your phone it sends a responsive site where chat works fine.
They literally go out of their way to make it awful to use.
