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
-
Repost bots are already rampant on big subs, but it would get so much worse if those bots could generate continual revenue.
-
I thought Tinder's most expensive tier costing $500/month was a joke, but it's actually a thing. Someone somewhere is paying $500 for Tinder every single month. Wild.
-
Some mods would do it. I don't know why, but they would.
-
i too deleted my 15-Year Club reddit account

How is this new? Reddit gold gave you access to the subreddit that only gold members could access. It didn't have anything good in it as everyone would rather have a larger reach.
If he intends to convert an existing sub to it, he will quickly find how much people are happy to more to a new sub.
-
That's why I'm here. Just made an account. Sick of everything being a goddamn subscription.

Welcome, I joined here after the API protests. It's a smaller community so content is slow to move but it's nice to have forums where you're having constructive conversations with people, not a huge amount of bots or repeated to death catch phrases
Enjoy this little bastion before it attracts mainstream attention.

With the API changes, I became read-only (without an account) on Reddit.
I now skim the communities that don't really exist here.
... it's actually saved me a lot of time now that I can't (and thus don't feel the need to) debate local politics with morons anymore!
... unless and until they come to Lemmy.

What's Reddit? A clone of Lemmy?
-
I left 2 years ago from my 13yo account, deleted everything as well
Obligatory Fuck You spez
No regrets, I love Lemmy
-
I was thinking a profit sharing concept for the people running the sub would make sense. I’m sure that’s not what it is though.
-
It's for people with that much money to waste. Saudi princes and the like.
-
Lumbergh...
-
RIP Reddit
-
Looking forward to having more conversations with fewer people. I’m not trying to argue politics anymore. It’s fruitless.
-
Yeah that’s pretty much the only real market I can see for this.
-
I haven't had an account since the Apollo purge but fuck Spez.
-
This is the actual reason for me too. I'm making a point to never visit that website again.
There's exceptions like when searching for troubleshooting help and a relevant result happens to be on Reddit, but otherwise I avoid it as much as possible.
-
After reddit goes paywall It's time to Lemmy

Welcome!
The fediverse situation has been improved a lot since the first API migration, hope you enjoy it here!
