“Make Shit Worse Again”

Isn’t this basically what r/lounge is?

I used to go there, it wasn’t that cool

  • the average person does not care, and won’t pay for reddit. They do not use it in a way that makes sense paying for it like a subscription.

Redditors will care. Chronically online people will notice. Will it make money? Only from goobers willing to fall for it. It’s like a two part joke - unpaid mods couldn’t stand against the initial API changes because it meant losing the figment of imagination that they call power. Unpaid volunteers will now eat the other half of the joke - they’re going to PAY to moderate these subs. (As the sub will need a subscription presumably). Reddit investors are getting these people to be the joke that just keeps giving. Imagine paying to do work lmao

Hah, same. Made an account awhile ago and this made me check to see how things are going in Lemmy land.

So free speech but with a cover charge?

Ste41th ,

So he wants to make a user pay to see user generated content? Or even better he wants to make a user pay to create content in a subreddit where a user has to pay to see the content they made after they paid to do that themself?

credo ,

Hmm. Sounds like he’s been reading about science research and how publishers make money.

Sometimes we forget that the roof over our heads and the walls that hold it up are temporary. The store at the mall is temporary. The mall is temporary. The ground that the mall is on is temporary. Nothing last forever. Except for the stupidity of Steve Huffman, which seems boundless.

Bell ,

That’s not fair!

You left out his greed

Potatisen ,

I’m hoping this will be a Patreon/OnlyFans situation where you can make a subreddit for your followers, art or whatever and not a thing where the big subs become $0.99/Month.

SGGeorwell ,

It will be the second thing, and it will be more than $.99

thefluffiest ,

No way I’m subscribing to spez’ OnlyFans! No way in hell!

AI_toothbrush ,

Only spez

Potatisen ,

It’s just him doing the daily Goatse and you’re paying for it.

Hey guys it’s ok, Steve Huffman said Reddit is altruistic so he’s probably just helping society out of the goodness of his heart.

JimmyBigSausage ,

What is a reddit?

toiletobserver ,

It’s that horrible website that Google tries to link to, like Pinterest

It’s like a shitty corporate-run Lemmy instance with no federated peers

foggy ,

Let’s watch that stock price.

xmunk ,

Awesome. Hopefully it encourages more attrition.

M500 ,

Yeah, and more growth for the fediverse.

Dagnet ,

I have a feeling that anyone still left at reddit at this point has a serious case of Stockholm syndrome and won’t leave no matter what
