So how long until they kick legacy mods from r/startrek and reopen?

MODERATORS
As much as I support the protest and no longer want to use Reddit, people with that opinion are probably a small minority. If people want to stay on Reddit despite everything, that's up to them in the end. Reddit won't be the same, and some subs will be a shadow of their former selves when they lose the mods, but people are allowed to stay if they want.
It seems to me mods should be resigning and moving elsewhere if they want to. Reddit is not going to change tack. By all means do everything to let them know how shitty they've been (delete your account and all posts if you want). But also let people try to take over and keep things going if that's what they want.
Federated social media is the future (I hope). Unless the community controls the platform, similar problems will keep happening.
This is pretty much what I think as well. I migrated to here mostly because I think that the root and core of the Community has done the same, and r/startek was one of the few places where you could still talk Star Trek without unreasonable whining.
r/startrek would've been a shitshow (like many other sci-fi/fantasy subs) without the amazing job the mods do. I hope this community can grow and be as good, if not better, as r/startrek.
Reminds me of when I got banned from a Star Wars forum for saying that I liked some aspects of the prequels ('twas long ago) and not hating on them and Lucas enough.
EDIT: That being said, for me, r/startrek was more about the community, and the spirit, core of it has moved here, then so be it. If reddit is little more than a knowledgebase/thing I come across when googling STObuilds or something then that's also fine.
