MODERATORS
Why not a fifth or even just an tenth as popular as reddit? I get wanting it to be more active, especially for the niche communities to feel more active, but the last thing I want is to go to the "All" tab here and see anything remotely like /r/all on Reddit.

Big L take
One thing desperately needed is a method for mods/admins to check for brigading behaviour. This place (the threadiverse, not this community specifically) is crawling with more reactionary toxicity than almost anywhere I've ever seen, but it's mostly cowardly ignorant people silently hammering the downvote button rather than saying out loud the thing that would get them insta-banned.
Also real blocks are needed - all we have right now is a glorified 'mute'. If I block an asshole, not only is it because I don't want to see their BS, but I also don't want them to be able to see my posts & comments, at least not from that account.
