Looks like Reddit will finally do something about their powermod problem and prohibit individuals from moderating more than 5 large subreddits at once.

TL;DR: A leaked Reddit admin policy change will reportedly limit accounts to moderating only one large subreddit (1M+ weekly viewers) and up to five medium-sized subreddits (100k+ weekly viewers). This is seen as a response to past subreddit blackouts over API changes, with some moderators allegedly planning to circumvent the restrictions. Here are some screenshots if you don't want to view the cancerous link:
Honestly. too little too late and for the wrong reasons. They should have done this 6-8 years ago.

Makes more room for AI mods

I don’t think that this could help Reddit become good again
And it's about 10 years too late.
It's about 5 years ago that they deleted comments from anyone saying "fuck the 5 mods"
