Reddit will lock some content behind a paywall this year, CEO says
-
I am now on my third attempt let's see if this one sticks
-
I don't really get it why would people want to post to a sub that hardly anyone can see and likely you won't get any good amount of karma.
likely I'm missing something but yeah I wouldn't pay to see a sub I'd just look for a free one which likely already exists.
-
That's one sure way to kill the platform
-
At least you got banned. Last time I tried to return in 2024, I was _shadow_banned. Zero indication that none of my comments were showing up until I saw the page logged out...
-
TF2, a very popular game, is barely present here! Let alone niche indies!
-
I've been thinking about this And the only thing I can think of spez wants to bring back his old sub reddit but it needs heavy paid modding.
-
Could work well if it is implemented like a patreon community.
-
I don't think people really care about karma? Can easily farm that by bots or just by posting cats in place that likes cats.
People on patreon are often using private spaces like Discord. This could work well for Reddit if done right
-
In Patreon, the users are selling their content, in this case Reddit is paywalling user content without paying the users.
-
I had multiple accounts suddenly they all got system error, which in Reddit means you are banned. They couldn't be bothered to implement a notification system to inform the users they were banned.
-
A good example is the Usenet community, in Lemmy there is barely any activity, on reddit people post at least once a week.
-
Creators are providing extra content to users. Often comes in form of tiers, which is paywalled.
But the platform sucks with engagement between these users. So they often rely on private discord server for that.No one knows how it exactly will work yet on Reddit.
I'm just saying their could be a market for it. -
I still have no idea why I was banned, nobody ever replied to me
-
From my experience they almsot never reply.
-
Reddit is just a bunch of bots, jerking each other purple. They don't have any content worth locking.
-
Who you calling friend, pal? \s (I hope some folks know this
) -
Nope it’s been shit for a while it’s just the straw.
