BetUS said not all everyone believes Reddit might reverse its pricing move, but almost all think CEO Steve Huffman will survive regardless.

Hundreds of people are putting money on whether the company will back-track on its new API pricing policy or oust its CEO Steve Huffman, BetUS told Insider.

The online betting company said there was “very close heat” over whether Reddit will reverse its new pricing policy.

“So far, the betting public seems very much “at odds” and are undecided on this one so far,” it said.

Almost all bets have been on Huffman still being CEO by December 31, BetUS added.

    Same here. Had been using RIF for a long while as well and recently realized that it really was like a screen that managed to filter the worst of it if you knew how to customize your experience. Without that, there’s no point anymore. The Fediverse has its own learning curve, but it will be worth it just to find the instance and comms I’ll be most comfortable in.

      I had over a hundred subreddits in my Home page, and several hundred ones blocked from All.
      Many of my subscribed subreddits had a sense of community. Three examples that I will miss, off the top of my head, are StanleyKubrick (small-to-medium) MadMen (small-to-medium) and Baseball (large).
