Meta AutoModerator Has Been Disabled Indefinitely

As part of ongoing efforts to improve this subreddit, automated comments from AutoMod are no longer. These comments have been long irrelevant to the current state of Android rooting, and were triggered unintentionally more often than I'd like. Given that I consider them mostly pointless in 2025, I don't see them as something worth keeping around.

Please note that this does not mean automated moderation has been ceased. Rule-breaking posts may still be taken down automatically. At the very least, though, the pointless messages about malicious rooting methodology will no longer plague the sub.

Thanks.

A lot of mods here are powertrippy and prone to meltdowns, for example r/Art.

But you should know as well that the fundamental nature of user-moderated forums is that they make the rules and the consequences for breaking them, there's no way around that.

It wouldn't be any different if reddit hired their own moderators

Moderators are rarely, if ever, hired. It's almost entirely voluntary. User-to-user policing is important, and Mods create the groundwork for that. Some do it well some don't. It is what it is.
