No apologies as Reddit halfheartedly tries to repair ties with moderators (arstechnica.com)

Reddit is reaching out to moderators after tensions rose over recent policy changes and API pricing. A Reddit admin acknowledged the strained relationship and outlined new weekly feedback sessions and other outreach efforts to repair ties. However, moderators remain skeptical of Reddit's efforts given mixed results from past initiatives. Many mods feel Reddit has been unwilling to make meaningful changes to address their concerns like more accessible API pricing or exemption for accessibility apps. After a tumultuous few months, moderators have very low expectations that Reddit's latest efforts will result in real changes.

Less than the bare minimum. This user only replied to like 3 comments on that thread and didn't even offer any apology or reconciliation even though they claimed they were 'owning' the problem. Furthermore, people have been telling them what they need to change for months/years and yet they come to the table asking for feedback on what they can change? How about they listen to the feedback that's already been given?!
