As I suspected, it's the admins and people featured in leaks, not the ones everyone thinks it is (ie. Bardfinn and N8theGr8).

Both of those also show some of the mod list in the sidebar.
You might enjoy looking through this, if you want to investigate more: https://archive.is/https://old.reddit.com/r/defaultmods*
I clicked-through a couple of them, and noticed some familiar names. TheHat2 was able to comment in there many years back, and he's here on SaidIt under a different username. Don't know if he'd be willing to share any leaks. It might jeopardize his status though, especially since he still is mod of subs on Reddit, so understandable if he doesn't want to.
We know that Bardfinn and N8 have alts. If anyone here is also active on KiwiFarms and can share this info with them, see if any of them are willing to dig into user names they spot to cross-reference?

I highly doubt Bardfinn and N8 are involved in the upper echelons. Bardfinn isn't even a default mod, and N8 isn't anywhere near loyal enough. In fact he seems to sympathize more with us in recent years, differences in moderation philosophy aside. They're both nothing but tools to the cabal.
Plus, why would they use an alt in a private subreddit only they can see?

I can't speak to N8, I never followed him or cared much until some drama with him quitting modding a while back. He's back under a different alt now though.
Bardfinn definitely uses alts though, make no mistake about that. He prefers recognition and acknowledgement as his main Penny persona, but he's also extremely paranoid and waxes on eternally about death threats and the like. If I were him and needed to feed my narcissistic delusions of grandeur, I would absolutely create an alt and try to rub elbows with the defaults until getting perms on their subs. All it takes is one, and then he feels justified because he's actually a part of the clique.

Again, they have no need to use an alt in a private cabal subreddit.
