Now For Reddit is going to go to a subscription service. It’s not that popular but it’s the one I like. I’ve not decided yet if I’m going to keep using it and pay for a subscription - it depends on how much per month it costs, for me the lack of NSFW isn’t a deal breaker but Reddit’s slimy behavior recently kind of is.
I’m honestly just over reddit. Even if all the apps came back for free I’d probably try sticking with lemmy. Not a fan of a company that clearly doesn’t give a shit about their userbase. Good for the third party devs who are making it work with subscriptions but I’m not willing to pay a subscription to go straight into reddit’s pocket.
Subscriptions for the apps just reward the bad behavior of reddit
Don’t pay for it. Every cent will go to Reddit for something that costs them fractions of a cent to do and reinforces that their decision to fuck everyone over was correct. Cold turkey that shit and fuggedaboutit.
