As a Reddit user in the past, I see some benefits of implementing a more organized site.  It would also help get the content where the user wants it for quick access.  However, I do have some concerns on how some communities will be created and the process of assigning moderation roles within them. I cannot see how a decentralized approach could work under this framework.  That concern extend when thinking abiut restricted communities as it will foster centralization on the platform from my opinion.

I was hoping somebody would chime in with experience on Reddit. I was pretty sure this would be similar but neve really used reddit myself. 

I’m not sure if this will have any impact on Steemit’s decentralization though. The functions being implemented seem similar to the same control somebody has over their own channel. It’s just being extended to other users to manage and post to. But we’ll see.

Its a double edge sword. Moderation is necessary to get rid of spammers/scammers/abusers. But since there is an income stream attached to it, mods will be forced to use their power well. Centralization of power via SP holder is already here...i see this new feature as a way to counteract those who yield too much voting power.
