May I ask, why the hammer? Assume it has something to do with your job.

I will stay, just have to figure out more how it actually works.

I mean, it is obvious that the reddit owners and hence admins primarily care about subs being open. They don't really care about making your work harder or requiring more active moderation.

But I am very curious, why would you even go to all the length to work on a bot for 4-6 weeks just so you can make the people who treat you like shit more money?

To be quite honest, I suspect the whole shebang will end how Huffman expects for the most part. Most users don't care and the people who do care, primarily the mods are too addicted to step away or actually behave in a way that will have long lasting effects.

Nevertheless, sucks they did you dirty like that, but not unexpected given your response and reddits enshitification.
