View submission: Accessibility Updates to Mod Tools: Part 2
as director of product, and the person presumably charged with improving the moderating experience on the app - how much moderating experience do you have? how many communities? how long? how large? how active were you?
i'm really not aiming for a 'gotcha' situation, i swear, but every "improvement" in the mobile app for moderating seems really dialed in for *extremely small subreddits* and the usability goes right out of the water for any slightly large community
also, i'm asking because your account is nearly blank and as far as i can tell the people designing the app and the mod functions have limited experience with moderating
so yeah, genuine question

It's not so much that they have limited experience with *moderating*... Honestly I don't think that most reddit staff (up to the CEO) use reddit *at all*, outside of test environments. Which I guess I understand, I have a full-time job and I don't enjoy doing that job for "fun" outside of work. But still, I agree - there seems to be a huge disconnect between the people who design the product and ... anyone who has actually used the product for more than a few minutes at a time.
