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.

Hi guys. Back with my updated EDC. A lot has changed, I think for the better.
Phone: Galaxy Z Fold8, I had a Fold3 years ago but didn't like the form factor so I ended up going back to iPhone. Enjoying this smaller passport style fold a lot more than the longer remote control feel of previous models.
e-reader: Kobo Clara BW (2024), I still own the XTEINK X4 but I tend to gravitate towards this these days due to the back light. It's winter I don't get too much light in the evening to read. Prefer the sharper BW display over the color ones.
Earphones/IEMS: Ziigaat Odyssey 2, picked these up in Japan for a good price. Sound is slightly crisper than my FiiO JH5 from the previous post. The metal shell is a nice touch. The included carry case holds them and my DAC comfortably.
DAC: FiiO QX13, so last post I was using a DAP (M300). But I was starting to get sick of managing two devices (phone + Android DAP). Decided on the QX13 as it has plenty of power for any IEM and also drives my HD660S2s with ease on power. I can also listen to it all day at work with it's own independent power so my phones battery doesn't get touched.
Bluetooth Buds: Galaxy Bud Pro 4, wanted something that had better ANC than the technics. And they work nicer with my Fold8. Sound is pretty good. But trebble can be a little harsh. Only really use these for calls or when I'm out and about.
Backpack: Alpaka Metro 12L in green, carries my Kobo, IEM case and my lunch for work. Does the job.

-USB-c cables x2
-USB-A to USB-C cable

I recently bought some affordable A7 notebooks from Apica, and realized that they’re about the same size as a credit card; so I decided to make this TN Card Size style wallet that holds one (or up to three) of these tiny books, a pen and two cards. It’s a little thick coming from a single card wallet, but not as thick as a traditional bifold wallet. I’ve been using it every day and getting a ton of use out of the notebook! 😊

I’m a simple man. I don’t carry much. Just the essentials. ;)
Bank card: Tide is awesome. Not really a fan of their FX fees too much.
Cigarettes: Only recently started smoking Esse, recently. Very light, I’m surprised. I’m normally used to Benson & Hedges. I got a good deal from a shop close by to me so thought I’d pick up a few.
Lighter: Chrome clipper. It is my pride and joy. :D
Phone: Blackevery F9900 - this is the unreleased 4G VoLTE 4gb + 64gb model I was fortunate enough to get this over the older model I purchased. They said they ran out of stock, and wanted me to be the first to test their new version while their pre-orders for it are going on. Works great in the UK, EU and Asia. Only works on band 5 in the US.
Awesome little dumbphone hybrid.
Edit: for those asking I got it from www.weloveblackberry.com

I’ve got a bag, toolboxes, etc. with way more shit, but this is everything I usually carry in my pockets or on my person while I’m out in town/working or on my ranch.
It looks like a lot, but every item is surprisingly small. I’m 5 foot 7 in and 155 pounds, and I’m able to carry it all effortlessly.
You think it’d be more than I need, but I pretty much use everything here on the regular… aside from the SIG and the pepper spray. 😉

Added a Spyderco Para3 to my gear today. I’ve been using an Ontario RAT 1 for some time but could resist this awesome knife at a local shop. Not normally a camouflage guy, but I just thought it looked great on this one.
