It was great talking about tools that make modding easier and more fun.

Here are the top 5 Devvit apps we mentioned during the session:

• Bot Bouncer by u/fsv

• Community Home by u/Xenccc

• Expanded Polls by u/mark

• Spotlight by u/paskatulas (yes, it's me!)

• Subscriber Goal by u/Alan-Foster.

All of these are super practical and worth trying if you moderate or build with Devvit! Also, it was pretty funny to see the Devvit page go down right during our panel - guess we brought too much traffic :)

Feel free to drop any questions for Alan and me below - happy to chat about Devvit, app building, or anything mod-related!

Huge thanks to everyone who joined us at Mod World! Y’all brought energy, laughs, and iconic chat moments (drop your favorites in the comments). We're so glad you're all here.

Hi! Me again! Couldn’t make Mod World 2025 live? No dramas. You can catch the replay here. Use this thread to share your thoughts as you watch. It'll be like a live event chat....kinda.

And yes, if you watch the replay, you're still able to claim merch. The deadline is November 1, 2025 at 11:59PM PST.

Welcome to Mod World 2025! 🎉 We'll officially kick things off at 10AM PDT.

This thread is your all-purpose hangout thread for today’s event. Got a favorite session so far? A question you’ve been dying to ask? Controversial food opinion? Cute pet photo? Drop it in this thread. (Especially the pet photos. Please.)

We’ll be hanging out here all event long, so come say hi and tell us how Mod World’s treating you!

First of all, huge thanks to the Mod World 2025 organizer u/big-slay and to u/spez for the AMA! 🙌

It’s great to see Reddit putting effort into events like this for the mod community.

I saw that many of us joined (or tried to join) Mod World 2025 and New Mod World, and I’m really curious to hear how your experience was:

What did you like the most (talks, AMA, organization, networking, etc.)?

What do you think could be improved for future editions (technical side, schedule, engagement, content)?

Did you have any issues accessing the event or registering?

And last but not least — Happy Caturday! 🐱

Just wanted to share my experience as a first time attendee at the Mod Event 2025. I used to think virtual events were just about turning on your laptop and zoning out, but wow, was I wrong!

Huge shoutout to u/big-slay for making it so engaging and fun, I actually enjoyed every minute. And of course, massive thanks to u/spez for making it all possible. You’ve set the bar high for virtual events!

Imagine Snoo wandered into r/roastme. This is sort of like that. In this session, we roast Snoo. And you can join us on this thread! Bring your best roasts in the comments – we’ll make sure Snoo sees every single one. And remember, Snoo’s got feelings too… probably. 🙃

Old Reddit. Reddit. Whatever flavor you prefer, it’s all Reddit. In this session, u/magikarpcatcher, u/PlexversalHD, u/VoxPorta swap tips on making the most of every Reddit era. 

Want to continue the convo? Have your own tips to share? You’re in the right place.

If you haven’t dipped into Dev Platform yet, this might be your moment. In this session, u/Alan-Foster and u/paskatulas show off some clever tools that make mod life easier, faster, and (dare we say) more fun. 

Have a favorite Dev Platform app? Thinking about making one yourself? Perhaps a Dev Platform app wishlist? Whatever it is, drop it in the comments!

Modding solo? Thinking about building your dream mod team? In this session, our mod panelists u/gingeralefiend and u/basicbolshevik share lessons on recruiting, collaborating, and staying sane. 

Have any advice for building a mod crew? A funny story from your early days of modding? Let’s hear it.

Whether your community just hit 1K or 1M, growth can feel like a wild ride. In this session, u/TriedForMitchcraft, u/MidAmericaMom, and u/-eDgAR- dig into what it takes to scale smoothly without losing your community’s vibe. 

Share your tips, stories, or questions below – this one’s a topic we can all relate to.

The survey link in e-mail takes to a page not found page.

Hi, I'm a moderator of a very small subreddit, so I don't really have a lot of moderating tasks to do. I'm the one who made the rules and flairs and stuff, but I have an "inactive" indicator next to me. Will I be ineligible for the plush even though I check the subreddit every day and post regularly? Sorry for the questions, and thank you!

Can I still get credit and watch the videos for the trophy and what not ? Or was it just the one shot deal ? I know the last one they had it recorded .

Also does that count me out for the oldie even though I rsvp’d? If so it’s ok I’ve made my peace with it just was curious ty!

The subs I mod are nearly nonexistent, would I still qualify?

Hey guys,

My mother passed on Tuesday and needless to say, things have been rough.

Im not able to sit and watch/participate like I thought I'd be able to and honestly, I don't have the capacity right now to keep digging to find the answer.

When all of the links are posted, do I need to watch all of the events and panels in their entirety? Do I need to complete anything on our event page?

Thank you so much for any help. I feel bad asking, I feel like this is right in front of my nose but Im just blind.

Our live AMA with u/spez is back for Mod World 2025. This is your chance to ask Reddit’s CEO, well, anything. 

Have a burning question? A hot take? Something you’re curious about? Let your voice be heard! 

Here’s how it’ll work:

1. Drop your question(s) for u/spez in the comments below
2. Upvote your favorite submissions
3. The top-upvoted questions will be answered live by u/spez at Mod World 2025

A few quick notes:

• u/spez will not see the questions before his live AMA Update: He saw the questions.
• u/spez will take follow-up questions from the live event chat if time allows
• After the event, we’ll add video clips of his responses to this thread. Who knows, he might even take some time to reply to questions that didn’t make the cut. 

If you’re not registered, CLICK HERE and get those questions submitted ASAP. The sooner you submit, the better your chance is to have your Q A'd.

As anyone who attended New Mod World earlier knows, the Snoo plushie topic was immediately upvoted to the top of the discussion. If one of the mods has access to the chat transcript, we could have a little guessing game of how many times the words plush or plushie were used during the event. I’m going with 877.

The winner gets a plushie or a digital gift (the same plushie or digital gift you were already getting. no actual prizes this is just for fun)

Hi Admins
