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.

    Idk why you are getting down voted so much, the entitlement of the Internet to expect someone to host servers and write code for their entertainment for free is crazy.

    Last I checked (when I deleted my Facebook and wanted to have an educated why are you leaving block, granted this was a long time ago) Facebook made roughly $20/year selling my data. I would rather have multiple different models personally. Let me pay you to not have ads and not sell my data, but have free tiers where you let them sell your data and show you ads for the people that refuse to pay for anything. This gives everyone what they want.
