If you applied last time and never heard back, I’m sorry. The honest answer is that I only really connected with one applicant, and then the process stalled out. That was then. Please, 1000% reapply if you want to. Reddit's mod application system dumped out all applications.
Just remember that we’re trying to build a welcoming, even-handed team. If your comment history is full of cracks about Europeans, liberals, conservatives, gay people, or anyone else, or you made it sound like you would marry your rifle if legally permitted, you may not be the right fit. We need people who can moderate gun content without making guns, politics, or contempt for other groups their entire personality.
A little background for anyone curious:
I became a moderator three years ago. I had never moderated a subreddit before, but I loved r/EDC. During the API blackout, the previous team was removed and Reddit began asking for volunteers to take over. I was uncomfortable stepping into that situation (aka being a scab), but one of the people volunteering was the owner of an EDC commercial website, and I did *not* want the subreddit placed under someone with such a direct conflict of interest.
So, somewhat unexpectedly, I became a moderator.
The rest of that original replacement team has understandably moved on over time. I have learned a lot, tried to approach moderation with a customer-service mindset, and taken advantage of the automation tools Reddit has added. My goal has never been to radically remake r/EDC. I have mostly tried to make it a bit more welcoming, tighten up what the expectations already were, and so on.
That includes firearms. Guns have consistently been the community’s biggest dividing issue, and we will continue trying to walk a reasonable line. Firearm-related EDC is welcome; a photograph from your AR range day with no real connection to everyday carry is probably better suited to another subreddit. (cool gun though dawg)
Honestly, I would eventually like to ride off into the sunset or at least step back slightly. I have other projects I am working on these days. But I have put a lot of work into this community I love so much, and before that happens, I want to build a capable, balanced, and dependable moderation team that can take care of it.

Went lightweight today. Kershaw Leek, Victorinox Rambler, and Maglite Solitaire led. Had a streamlight pocket mate but the case broke apart and revealed a spicy pillow battery. For $10 the Maglite has been a great replacement.

This has been a pretty typical office carry setup for me lately. List in comments.
Nothing special but it’s been very useful lately. Before you say it… yes there are 4 knife blades in this kit and multiple bit drivers… no I will not remove any of them. Mainly use it for putting together baby toys, opening packages and as a grab and go tool bag for trail riding on my DRZ400.

I always carry a lip balm with me
The setup is handy enough, but it keeps poking me in my pocket.
I found out I don't really need to carry the whole thing.
A quarter would be enough to last me all day.
So I made a smaller case for it.
Simple snap-fit, no threads.

ok gearheads... First world problems: too many (terrible) flashlight choices. amazon is full of suspicious, silly little lights. Specifically, i'm looking for a good headlamp. i'd like it to have a long battery life, a red light setting, and an on/off button that doesnt make you cycle through all the modes OR press and hold it for an awkward amount of time just to get it to turn off. If yall can suggest something, I'd greatly appreesh. TIA

Was carrying a little OLight (400 lumens) and Ozark Trail multi but upgraded to a Nitecore MT1C Pro (1000 lumens) and Leatherman Sidekick. Love the light so far, but just picked up the Sidekick so we'll see

As an anniversary present, my wife compiled a collection of everyday essentials and put together an EDC bag for me. This pouch lives on my laptop bag now and has proved quite convenient.
