News and Discussions about Reddit
Welcome to !reddit. This is a community for all news and discussions about Reddit.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules
Rule 1- No brigading.
**You may not encourage brigading any communities or subreddits in any way. **
YSKs are about self-improvement on how to do things.
Rule 2- No illegal or NSFW or gore content.
**No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Recent recruit from Reddit. Finally made the jump. Love the apps like Boost, Thunder and Voyager.
I like Voyager too. Im on Android but prefer the Apple design right now in terms of look and feel.
Imagine paying actual money for shitty memes and mean comments.
This will be good. They will eventually drive everyone away!
Who's on there except bots?
How is that different from the lounge?
It probably already exists in some form of private subs
Reddit is just borderline unusable because of the API thing.. The app is unusable, and Red Reader is just too bland to use.
Not to mention bloated and loads like crap on older mobile devices.
fun fact: you dont have to use websites
mfw someone makes r/paywalledwhatever then someone else mirrors it with r/unpaywalledwhatever
Watch them fuck up the implementation and suffer the worst PR disaster in recent history when they slap a paywall on r/suicidewatch.
You should read the article:
Reddit's paywall would ostensibly only apply to certain new subreddit types, not any subreddits currently available.
Because when reddit was introducing the new API pricing and said it would be affordable and they would work with developers of 3rd party apps to make a smooth transition, that was obviously how things went. Everyone knows that because reddit makes a claim they follow through on it with 100% accuracy. You're not wrong to read the article and cite info from it, but there's no reason to believe that's what's going to happen either.
It'll be the porn they charge for.
They know only wankers will give them money.
Reddit has cracked down on many porn subreddits in the last few years. Most porn on reddit is now just ads for onlyfans.
There isn't really any porn left on reddit, it's pretty much just OnlyFans ads now.
What’s funny about that is Reddit is mostly just an advertising front for onlyfans at this point
I mean yeah, and that's the piece of the pie they want. It will start with letting content creators charge and probably end by some ban or disincentive on direct only fans links.

First they came for the porn subreddits, but I didn't say anything because I was not a porn subreddit.
Next wave of reddit exodus coming soon...
I followed Reddit Sync to Lemmy during the API fiasco. Even then, it was better than reddit had been in years. It's only gotten better.
Same bro, I'm still on Sync typing this to you 😄👍
Yes let's put a site that consists pretty much entirely of user-created content behind a paywall, what could possibly go wrong?
Well, Spez is a special kind of stupid.
I think people who are content with Reddit being the way it is deserve someone like Spez.

Some subreddits, like r/Watchexchange, where Redditors “buy, sell or trade watches,” according to the subreddit’s description, are centered on transactions. Huffman said the fact that users are already “transacting on Reddit kind of opens the door” for such monetization.
"Hey! How dare you exchange things with each other without giving us a cut!"
Whole lot of “Reddit, what are you going to do about the scammers now that we’re paying you?” posts are coming. The answer is nothing. They’ll do nothing.
Actually, they’ll write their lack of culpability more explicitly into the ToS, and then do nothing.

Ugh, aCtUaLly the almighty Reddit Admins and ~~janitors~~ Moderators will act decisively to ban anyone who dares use the report button.

Well, that’s the death of the free* forum. Went from BBS to newsgroups to phpBB to Reddit, each soft-killing its predecessor. But like WalMart killing Main Street, Reddit is going to kill the free forum.
Thank goodness for Lemmy and other free* social network software.
*free with the asterisk because we know it’s not free, we are enjoying the service that others volunteer to pay for.

Guys, Gals, my non-binary pals.
I hope you understand the assignment.
This is a terrible idea but let me entertain it for a second.
- Would this be like YouTube in which case content creators get a cut so they are incentivized to promote paid content (even though you don’t actually pay to subscribe to a channel).
- Or would this be just Reddit holding some content out for ransom behind a paywall.
- Or would this be some features that some paid subs have.
- or would some subs be a marketplace in which you can buy and sell.
I don’t see any of these panning out except maybe the last one, but why wouldn’t you go to other sites like Etsy for that?
From what i've read it would be like lounge but for a single sub? And it's only for new sub, old sub aren't eligible to turn premium. So if you want to access to 10 paywalled sub you have to pay for each sub.
I have a feeling they gonna wipe porn off the free one so they can only use the paywalled sub.
