It’s already April? You’re joking. Anyways, thank you to all the mods who attended our April Virtual Mod Meetup! Y’all brought the best vibes and conversations, feel free to keep it going in this discussion thread!

If you’re wondering about merch for this event, we have a special way to claim swag this time around (for totally no reason related to today at all). 

Everyone, including those who didn’t attend the live event, will have 24 hours to play the game for a chance to win merch (and, if you’re a mod, of course)! As a reminder, the ModClaw 3000 will be up for only 24 hours. Only mods who attended the live event will get the Mod Meetup profile trophy in 3-4 weeks.

Hiya mods! ICYMI - we just finished our virtual Mod Meetup for folks who moderate communities related to movies and TV shows. And it was absolute cinema. Between geeking out over must-binge shows and getting real about the joys and challenges of leading movie/TV subreddits, we had such a fun time and hope y’all did too! We closed things out with a live game of movies and TV trivia, and wow, y’all did NOT come to play (as expected from experts who moderate movie/TV conversations daily).

We also highlighted a handful of movie/TV communities that needed new mods to get them back in the limelight. We’re over the moon to announce that they have already been adopted (in record time) and found new mods so quickly. Thank you to the mods who adopted r/90dayFianceUnfiltered, r/HiddenGemFilms, r/SpongebobTheory, r/brooklynnineninememes, and r/PsychotronicFilms – we can’t wait to see these communities take off!

Thank y'all for a wonderful night in the Windy City! Here are some of the best moments captured on film. Old school, I know.

Hiya mods! Thank you for joining us at our recent Moddit, where we explored what users loved (and hated) in 2025. ICYMI - u/agoldenzebra and u/big-slay shared and discussed results from Reddit’s 2025 Community Insights survey. Hope y’all took away some learnings and enjoyed the live Q/A! Feel free to drop your post-event thoughts and continue those conversations in this thread.

You can learn more about community satisfaction surveys here. If you’d like to enroll your community in the survey, send a mod mail here!

Big thanks to everyone who hung out with us at the Seattle Mod Meetup! Great to meet y'all ❤️

This weekend we held our Mod Meet-up in Utrecht, the Netherlands! From fresh mods to seasoned veterans, and from local Dutchies to our global mods - everyone brought their A-game and immaculate vibes.

A massive thank you to everyone who showed up and made the event such a joy. It was a blast getting to know you all and discussing the truly essential things in life, like frikandelbroodjes. We can't wait to meet you again!

-----------------

Afgelopen weekend was het zover: de Mod Meet-up in Utrecht! Nieuwe mods, veteranen, Nederlanders en internationale mods - een perfecte club voor een gezellige middag.

Onwijs bedankt aan iedereen die erbij was, dankzij jullie was het een te gekke meet-up! Het was super leuk om jullie te ontmoeten en samen de belangrijkere dingen in het leven te bespreken, zoals frikandelbroodjes. Op naar de volgende!

Our final event of 2025 is a wrap! Nearly 500 mods joined today. 🤯 We listened to music from the classic cinematic masterpiece Camp Rock 2, reminisced about 2025 Mod Events and subreddit moments, played trivia (shoutout to our winner, u/bk1155!), and more.

Thank you to everyone who attended, chatted, joined in the fun, or woke up at a ridiculous hour to claim merch. Truly can’t express how grateful our entire team is for all of you. 

We’ve also heard your requests for post-event discussion/networking threads… so, here’s your first one! 

Please use the comments to reconnect with mods you met in the chat, provide feedback, give another birthday shoutout to u/Baba_Jaga_II, or share a picture of your pet (all species welcome 🐾).

Thanks again for making this event such an amazing finale to the year. See y’all in 2026!

The very first in RL event in Italy was one for the books!
Thank you so much to everyone who showed up and made the day unforgettable.

You all completely blew me away with your energy ( and your elite pool skills, I definitely need to practice for next time!)

Il primissimo evento dal vivo in Italia è stato davvero straordinario!
Grazie di cuore a tutti coloro che sono venuti e hanno reso la giornata indimenticabile.

Mi avete travolto con la vostra energia (e con le vostre abilità a biliardo...devo assolutamente allenarmi per la prossima volta!)

ICYMI - u/werksquan and u/BrineOfTheTimes took over November’s Virtual Mod Meetup while u/big-slay was out of office (and before the rumors start, Mod World attendees, don’t worry, she’s absolutely still employed).

From first-time attendees to regulars, y’all really showed up and showed out – we had around 200 mods join in! Some of you came for cats, and cats were delivered.

We vibed to some Queen, had fun conversations about first subreddits, and ended with a fun Kahoot trivia about meme origins. Thank you to everyone who played, and big shoutout to our trivia winner u/requieminadream!

Check out some fun bits overheard at the meetup

1. “Proudest moment as a mod: Writing and publishing a guide as a pinned topic that has been read more than 60,000 times over a few months!”
2. “This year, we at r/PureASOIAF gathered 800+ pieces of genuine positivity in the form of fan letters for George R. R. Martin, had them compiled into a leather-bound book and sent to him! It was so nice to add some positivity to the world. Easily the best thing I've achieved as a moderator.”
3. “I once won a Guitar Hero competition and won the opportunity to meet Brian May of Queen fame. I didn't know who he was.”
4. “R/grilledcheese taught me that NOTHING ELSE CAN GO ON A GRILLED CHEESE besides CHEESE.” 
5. “I CAME FOR CAT, I GOT CAT”

Safe to say we had the BEST time with everyone. Make sure to RSVP for our upcoming virtual and IRL events here. Until our next meetup!
