That would still be an enormous task for a single person. Let’s pretend they really only had to deal with not more than a single post from each sub every week:
1,000 comments/posts per week = ca. 142 per day. If that mod takes as little as two minutes to read and properly reply to each of those, that would amount to a daily 4-5 hours of unpaid work in their spare time.
Turtle was active on Reddit about 16 HOURS a day so it was certainly possible. Of course they didn’t actually do much of anything in those subs, they just collected them.
