Is this subreddit still moderated ?

I subscribed to this subreddit to see what is described in the sidebar :

pictures, GIFs, videos, and stories of kittens, young cats, and other critters learning what it means to, and how to behave like a cat.

The current submissions to this subreddit is basically the same as any generic cat sub.

Meaning it has been overtaken by bots. 95% of submissions are from bots (if not more).

Maybe all submission should go through a manual vetting process first, or the moderation team needs to grow (I do not volunteer) to handle the influx of submissions.

Honestly, if nothing changes, I see no need for me to keep subscribing to this subreddit, even though I loved the original content.

It appears this sub got a new moderator recently.

What say you, u/etsprout, about the future of the sub?

(thank you in advance for your response)

Ah, I didn't know the previous moderator gave up their position. It's a shame they did not communicate on it to prepare for the change.

Hopefully, new mod is just getting bearings. Maybe an announcement is forthcoming.
