Reddit plans to lock some content behind a paywall this year, CEO says | Reddit executives also discussed how they might introduce more ads into the social media platform

I feel like this is gonna be a cash cow for reddit, just not in a way spez can just openly talk about.
A huge portion of reddit is OnlyFans promos. Reddit is making zero off of all this, because traditional advertising doesn't want to associate themselves with porn. A bunch of these "paid subreddits" will basically be a reddit's attempt to compete with OnlyFans.
I honestly think it'll work. There's a lot of money in porn.n

How do you even migrate history? Would people even want that
Reputation definitely not. Also who even cares about reputation
Subreddits you can migrate in some apps at least

I wanna talk nerd shit about Sonic, Yugioh, and Sims again
-
Reddit: Here's another reason not to use our site.
Users: Ok bye.

By far one of the easiest decisions was jumping on over here - and I barely understand it half the time.
Second best was ditching Facebook like it was cancer.

What I find hilarious is all these companies doing this shit after all the advancements in programming languages and paradigms in the last few years.
Thanks to tools like Node.js, React, Flask, Reflex, OpenAPI Gen, GoLang, and more, people that are fed-up and have the know-how can stand up competing technology in record time.
I look forward to see what comes out of this corporate power grab. Hopefully there's not a lot of pain and suffering alkng the way.

Good thing I discovered Lemmy!

There’s not the same amount of content as YT, but have a look at the pinned post in this community about channels to follow: [email protected]

Looks like I dropped Reddit at just the right time.
-
Indeed, and welcome to you.
-
If you don’t mind me asking, how did you find it?
There are reports of Reddit banning Lemmy mentions.
-
His dick isn't small, I sucked him off once
-
I came over to Lemmy during the Great API third party disaster. The exodus had commenters saying to come over to Lemmy.
-
It was word of mouth for me. But now you’ve got me curious about occurrences of the term Lemmy on Reddit.
-
Same, word of mouth is how I found lemmy. Beehaw, then a few others, now I'm here on db0.

I never understood the desire to search in conversational language via AI. It's gone to far for my taste. I just want to be able to scour a huge volume of info for my exact search terms, maybe with a few synonyms or misspellings included. Google and AI keep trying to assume they know what I'm looking for, but they're always wrong (intentionally wrong based on their own motives).
The reason the dataset interests me is that search has gotten so bad that I can't get any non-corporate information from search engines anymore, just more pig swill, chumbucket ads, and misinformation slop. Anything I search for would probably give better results if I just searched old reddit, Wikipedia, and a few other datasets locally in a simple way. Not sure what software is best to use for something like that, but I'd like to collect a few mostly pre-AI datasets now to get the ball rolling before you can't find those online anymore either.

Glad I was finally early to something for once. It's been nice reading the reddit news from Lemmy for the last year or so.
-
Awwww yeaaah. Welcome friend, stay a while
-
There's nothing on Reddit anymore. It's really unfortunate but I don't see how this is going to help them regain any consistent user base.
-
I googled Reddit alternatives. I see Reddit as turning into just the next Twitter cesspool. There’s no longer any constructive conversation.
The problem is you can’t have real conversations that stoke any flames because they’re a public company and answer to the shareholders, so they, reddit, deem what is appropriate to be posted.
