Mods aren’t employees so the ADA wouldn’t apply here and constitute legal discrimination. Albeit this is pretty dang negligent from a business perspective.
ADA doesn’t just apply to employer/employee relationships.
“The ADA is divided into four main sections, which are called Titles: Title I covers employment; Title II covers public entities and public transportation; Title III covers public accommodations and commercial facilities; and Title IV covers telecommunications”
I assumed the person I was responding to was talking about a violation of employer/employee regulations. When it comes to social media, I don’t believe the telecommunications pillar applies right?
A few years ago I read about a group of lawyers, the self-serving greedy bastard kind of lawyers, that went around finding websites with accessibility violations and would file suit against them. With the way the laws are written the cases were slam dunks. The lawyers didn’t actually care about the violations, it was just a way to make a quick buck. It would be a shame if reddit had to face a swarm of those piranhas.
Isn’t this a violation of the ADA?

Ya I don’t think any of the sections apply. You are correct.
