Listen "49. Anonymity w/ Reddit Moderators"
Episode Synopsis
The Reddit forum r/Judaism is the world's largest anonymous Jewish community. If you know the internet, and you've ever been in a comment section, you might think this faceless space would be cesspool of crazies, haters and pedants.
And it sure would be if it weren’t for a handful of committed moderators: our guests in The Zal.
We ask what it takes to maintain a forum whose mandate includes everything from complex legal clarification to Jewish feelings of loneliness to baby-Yoda Purim costumes.
Together, we (try to) define anonymity, and ways to prevent its pitfalls while promoting its perks.
