This is lame. The poster made a good point. If it’s not your platform, then you don’t own it.

so if I started a new sub Reddit that was part of a particular company initiative and connected people with it, I would not own that sub Reddit because it is not my platform.

this is a problem.

How so? Reddit pays for the infrastructure and software, why would anyone expect they own their own subreddit? Are people really expecting Reddit to operate at a loss? If you want to own it, pay for it.

The kind of unpleasant moderation jobs they expect people to do requires those people to feel some kind of ownership over the space they are creating.

If they want the job done a particular way, they need to pay for it.

To be fair, isn't that a two-way street? The argument of course is that mods are paying by creating content that Reddit can profit from, but the flip side is that those mods are similarly extracting value. (Many subreddits have an income incentive for the mods and/or users, such as the crypto ones or the NSFW ones that point to sites like Only Fans, etc)
