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
-
well, not all of them.
I can think of a handful I would much rather see thrown into a furnace.
-
No it wasnt.
-
the internet was better when it was anonymous, where you were explicitly and forcefully told that no one should know anything about you but your handle.
-
i hope there is a mass migration here
-
Yes it was.
-
The more they do shit like this the more they will
I mean, honestly Reddit is a dead site walking. At this point is not if it will “die” but how fast and I guess more importantly where will its users go. Hopefully here but who knows
-
Been here 2 years. Its just as easy to use as its always been.
I dont know where this sudden anti-lemmy "OMG ITS TOO HARD TO USE CAUSE WORDS ARE HARD I PREFER (insert site with same exact fucking usability" misinformation/propaganda has come from in the past few weeks, but its patently absurd and obviously fake.

I'm not particularly tech savvy and I found it confusing and hard to parse at first. It was worth it to figure out, because fuck Reddit, but I can understand people struggling with it, especially at first.

Welcome
We’re happy to have you here
-
Welcome to Lemmy!!

On Voyager app you can “migrate subreddits” at least
Not sure what else would even be feasible
-
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.
