This isn't public knowledge yet, only the most powerful of moppers have been privately been informed of this thus far. Allegedly this is Spez's revenge for the subreddit blackouts from last year over the API changes. Expect many a tantrum and meltdown in the coming months. :marseygossip:

The few jannies currently in the know are, of course, immediately discussing how they'll be able to circumvent this new restriction. By heck or high water, they're determined to keep doing it for free! :marseyxd:

TL;DR: A leaked Reddit admin policy change will reportedly limit accounts to moderating only one large subreddit (1M+ weekly viewers) and up to five medium-sized subreddits (100k+ weekly viewers). This is seen as a response to past subreddit blackouts over API changes, with some moderators allegedly planning to circumvent the restrictions.

Oh yeah, I don’t know how Reddit will deal with many mods just making alt accounts tbh. This sort of rule should’ve always have been the case on Reddit but bringing up the drawbridge now will potentially cause some problems for them at least in the short-term.
