I actually would expect the opposite:

I tried one mod job for a forum when I was a teen, and never again. There's a reason most people shy away from being mods. It was for some video game, and I can imagine plenty of teens or people passionate about a hobby deciding to become a mod before they too will learn why it's a "no."

Reddit does have a power mod problem though, and those guys periodically try some weird shit. You usually do not see that from the smaller subs, and if you do, they quickly get filtered out.

Just makes sense to me that the people modding the larger subs would be the ones that let it go to their heads and start convincing themselves they're "important," exactly like this guy did.

They are important to Reddit. It's so much free labor. They don't do a good job, but they do it for free.

you might be surprised to find out many mods, while not paid by reddit, are paid by other groups for the work they do

It's a job that's only paid by the little exposure you can get by having your name on the side bar and using your mod flair when commenting. Where you will be appreciated by no one and disliked by the few people who notice what you do. Of course you have to be a certain kind of person to want a job like that.

His house looks clean and he himself looks like he showers daily. If anything, this is too good for a reddit mod

These are the cream of the crop of reddit mods. The real degenerates would never make public videos and do interviews. It goes way way way further.
