I don't know, but don't read it unless they gilded themselves 3 times... whoops.

They also deleted all chat history from prior to this year.

I think they also plan to block you viewing Reddit in mobile browsers so you must get their app.

And that will be when I completely stop browsing Reddit. I already dropped my useage by probably 95%. If they do that, it'll drop to about 99.9% since I do most of my browsing away from my desk.

For real lol. It was my “information” app for coffee breaks at work or when I had downtime. I’m only at my computer to game, not browse Reddit
