I don’t understand. I’m a mod of 2 large subreddits and I walked away. I still have that account and username but I haven’t logged in for 2 weeks and have no plans to do so again.
That’s what I don’t get either, at this point I don’t see how anyone would willingly spend their time modding on reddit, so there they must be doing it against their will!
Most mods that left Reddit are just chilling here as regular community members, and I don’t blame them. I would chill out too after being exploited for free labor, allowing reddit to rake in the ad money.
I personally haven’t moderated prior to Lemmy (I currently moderate over two communities here - one on this account and another on another account) but I feel that it’s gonna get tedious if a flood of “normies” join us here.

How are people forced to continue to mod?

I guess they just don’t want their community to die / be destroyed.
So migrate the sub to Lemmy/Kbin. Nothing stopping mods from promoting links, I suppose.
Out of curiosity, are you modding here now?
