Mod fatigue because existing mods limit the number of people on the mod team to a size that makes them do too much work?
Eg. If a mod team only wants 5 individuals on the team and the community has 1000000 subscribers, then that's on them.
I'm a believer that the size of a mod team should be proportional to the size of the community; modding should be as casual as submitting a post/comment.
Don't get me wrong, I appreciate people putting in effort to try to make life better for everyone, I just think the fatigue is self inflicted.
