While I follow a more free market approach to this, like the free market in the real world, once a product is established it becomes increasingly harder for a competitor to appear. Much like brand-name association, something becomes popular by name or reputation a replacement will never truly succeed (minus the very small handfull of cases where they do, those are the exceptions). That's like the CEO of Twitter establishing itself one way and then once it became the dominate platform to decide to start kicking everyone out because their "vision" changed, the CEO needs to be removed by the shareholders. Option 1 is the best course.
I disagree with that. What you are wishing for is essentially mob rule. It wouldn't be that hard to get SRS to subscribe to a low traffic subverse and vote for an SRS liked mod and force reddit-style censorship. There needs to be more than only the subscribers. The subscribers need to meet a certain criteria in order to vote. Something like 100 CCP or SCP for that particular subverse, that way only those who are active in the community can make a vote.
But, that's still a problem if those SRS fags have no life and will play ball only to get the CCP/SCP needed to vote. But, again, it's now harder for them to do so.
IDK, maybe there's a better way that I'm not thinking of.

Mods should be elected by a community's subscribers
