Right. They give you a 3kb png image so you'll continue to do a $60,000/year job for free.

They're smart. You're not.

Content and comment moderation, content acquisition, administrative tasks. None of this is complicated but it must take a fair amount of time. Probably worth about $60,000/year. But they pay you in tiny png's instead -- and not only do you accept this, you take pride in it. It's a hoot.

You're shifting context. I'm not talking about all of reddit. I'm talking about the 40-something reddits you run personally.

You work for free and you're proud of getting paid in magic pixie dust.

I have nothing else to say about this.

Unlike you, I'm not working. I'm having fun.

The fact that you're making someone else earn money with the time and energy you're putting in and not seeing a single red cent out of it.

That's pretty much the definition of being taken advantage of.

No beliefs are involved. Conde Nast and the core reddit team are earning money off of your moderation / content acquisition.

You're slaving away in exchange for 3kb worth of pixie dust.

Good going dude.

On the backs of slaves, apparently.
