I was a mod on a millon people subreddit. I threatened them to go private and they took my mod povers. Better to reign in hell to serve in heaven.

Variden was once a great mod,

‘Til Reddit admins turned fraud

So to Lemmy we’ll scoot,

Than be under Spez’ boot

Of his own hell he can be god

My sub was smaller it had 73k in 3 years. I deleted my account and gave it to another mod. Of course he re-opend it. Whatever!
