I don’t understand why the mods continue to work. They literally keep the site alive so this guy can take all the credit and all the compensations.

Being able to contribute to a community can feel very rewarding even when you get little to no compensation for it. Many open source contributors know it all too well that their contributions can and will be used by big tech to make even more money.
