Yeah we get it Verge.com you're loving the reddit clicks
It's not even their research/article. They have summarized the great article Scharon put together here: https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2023/09/are-reddits-replacement-mods-fit-to-fight-misinformation/
She's been working on that for weeks now, talking to previous and current mods.
Interesting, because it mostly reads as a feature-length version of what is already posted on /r/ModCoord
It's getting old. I did the thing, I deleted my Reddit account and moved to Lemmy. So I kinda just want to remove Reddit from my mind for a while, I don't see the need to let it live rent-free in my head.
