She is a former writer for The Onion and The Onion Book of Known Knowledge: A Definitive Encyclopaedia Of Existing Information and regularly contributes to The New Yorker, The Washington Post , and McSweeney's.

Brooklyn Based said Moore's comedy "deftly highlights the absurdity of everyday life, with just the right touch of self-deprecation" and addressed her multiple careers, saying, "Moore has, by her own count, 'like 35 careers,' and is jealousy-inducingly good at all of them." Vogue also praised Moore for being a polymath, calling her a "jack of all trades."

Paste named her Twitter one of "The 75 Best Twitter Accounts of 2014" and "The 75 Best Twitter Accounts of 2015," ranking it at #19 both times. Refinery 29 called Moore one of "The Female Stand-Up Comedians You Need To Know." Bust called Moore one of "10 Funny Ladies You Need To Be Watching" and Brooklyn Magazine called Moore one of "Brooklyn's Funniest 50 People." Bust also called her band It Was Romance the "Best Band of 2015" and Billboard named them one of "16 Lesbian & Queer Female-Fronted Bands You Should Know." Bustle named her one of the top comedians of 2017. Out Magazine named her one of the OUT100 of 2017, a list that celebrates compelling people who have had a hand in moving forward LGBT rights.

Moore was previously the Sex & Relationships Editor for Cosmopolitan, where she was the driving force in making the site more LGBTQ inclusive, which led to her winning a GLAAD Media Award in 2016. Moore has also written for Glamour, GQ, Elle, Esquire, and Marie Claire.

In late 2015, Moore created popular Tumblr blog Male Feminists of Tinder, which was immediately praised by numerous outlets including New York Magazine, which called it "brilliant...a perfect snapshot of a particular, awkward moment in culture and technology." Paper Magazine called it "the best Tumblr ever," BuzzFeed called it "a gift," and Cosmopolitan called it "hilarious...drop-dead funny."

In 2017, Moore created the Tumblr blog "Hotties of MTV's Next," where she posted contestant profiles she'd curated from the reality dating series Next. The page was praised by news outlets including The A.V. Club, which called it "a time machine that highlights an undocumented era when collars were popped, tips were frosted, and farting was its own kind of cultural currency." Cosmopolitan called the page "perfect" and Moore a "genius." Moore also appeared on @midnight for a segment based around the account, which Chris Hardwick called "amazing."

Moore is the creator and host of Tinder Live, a stand-up comedy show where she uses the dating app Tinder and interacts with potential matches in real time. During the show, Moore projects Tinder profiles in front of an audience and panelists help her dissect profiles before swiping left (no) or right (yes). The comedy show, which began in 2014, performs in theaters around the world.
