One option would be to pay mods, or [...] reward them in other ways.

Maybe let them use the apps they want to use? Like we had before?

No just burn the website into the ground and leave. Its not worth it.

People with this sort of business mindset fail to see that not all mods do it for monetary benefit or rewards. Some people just want to build and be part of a genuine community that shares their interests, and that is all the motivation and reward they need.
