I don't have a problem with a business trying to make money, but lurkers need to realize that the site isn't run by the company it's run by the users who submit content, converse about it, and moderate it all for free.
All reddit does is keep the servers functional and take all the money, now they want a bigger chunk of money while not adding any more value.
And I mean, Im OK with reddit making some money too. They said they want to be "profitable" and thats fine. But what their asking is ridiculous. I mean I wouldnt mind having to pay a small subscription fee or something to access reddit from Sync, unrestricted as we have been. But Im talking small. Im not talking Netflix, Gamepass or Amazon Prime money here.
