Nah. The point of API costs was to kill 3rd parties to force all mobile users onto the 1st party app to ensure more ad views. They are marking subs back to SFW to ensure ad views, which is insane w/o NSFW cleanup.
Dunno what other revenue streams they can exploit. They’ve got ads, subs and paid awards, I’m sure they’re selling our data.
Looks like Reddit thinks that they own millions of people and how we use internet.
To be fair it aint just reddit… this is behavior we are getting across big tech, google, apple, samsung, netflix, microsoft… they all been tightening screws.
On the bright side, open, free and decentralized ecosystems and software is on the raise but not quite ready for normie stream
They don’t push their stuff very hard. But you’re right, they do have all the basics nailed down.
Which means all they can really do is try to widen those already-existing streams more. Getting everyone on the official app is a great step one, but it won’t fix profitability either. Need those streams wider yet.
