I’m not sure if this is new, but when I clicked on the /r/pics protest post link from the frontpage here, I was redirected to this: https://old.reddit.com/premium

I’m not sure if this is well-known or not that they’re pushing it now, but it’s the first time I’ve seen it, especially on old.reddit.

    $50/yr and you get… Nothing i care about.

    Avatars, coins, app icon im not interested at all. No ads isn’t necessary as none ever appear on my feed. Literally zero need for premium. But but you have access to r/lounge! < Wanking gesture>

      I don’t think coins/gold ever really made money.

      Reddit gave a shit ton out to mods to give to inflate the appearance people were buying them to give out. And when you’d receive gold, you got coins to give others gold.

      It’s like a Ponzi scheme but without money…

      I never paid a cent for gold, but had it at least 50% of the time on Reddit.
