Toolbox mod macros

The other reply mentioned this in reply to you, surely you must be aware of this tool and if so how in the world does the product planning team and/or reddit devs think to themselves, Yes, Macros is something we have seen and it is NOT something we need to implement anytime soon or ever, either natively on Desktop or worse yet not even on the Mobile app for Mods use.

In what logical world is that prudent product management?

The fact that Admins had to resort to that *Adopt a Admin* policy demonstrates how detached/out-of-touch Admins have become from modteam work. They quite literally have no clue what Modteams do and how and what they need.

Mods made Reddit what it is, NOT Admins or its devs, it grew despite the latter not because of them.

Even the community comes later. Mods and mod work should be plastered front and center in Everything Reddit employees/devs do behind the scenes if it wants to ensure whatever the heck it wants to do, be it growth, commercialization or some other pretentious BS. Stop trying to run a 300 Million user mega-platform, let subs de-fragment to much higher degree and provide them with Admin class toolkits to be used on their own subs only.

Reform the Moderator system. This not longer 2011. And yes Speed matters, planing something and implementing it 2 years down the line doesn't work anymore. Like that recent example of Know-Your-Followers feature delay of 24+ months from initial announcement. Incompetence of the highest order. But useless avatars on a platform which thrives on comments, expedited product development timeline. Ridiculous resource management, both capital and talent.

And where are the per-post traffic metrics? about/traffic page is amateurish still. How can mods grow, adapt to what is happening on their community if they don't even have every little detail that they should be having.
