“I think the existing, altruistic, free version of Reddit will continue to exist and grow and thrive just the way it has,” Huffman said. “But now we will unlock the door for new use cases, new types of subreddits that can be built that may have exclusive content or private areas, things of that nature.”
“Unlock the door” is a really strange way to say “lock the door.” What a dolt.
Sounds like a way for them to tap into the OnlyFans market…
Sure, but also the broader “join my Patreon to get access to my Discord server” market. It’s actually a pretty clever move, if there’s a market for it (there is) and if it replaces more insidious revenue streams (it won’t).
I wouldn’t be surprised if this was exactly what he was referring to.
We need to shore up all the porn instances for the coming wave of users - it only makes sense that’s what they’d wall off.
I can’t think of any audience that would be worse to interact with for Only Fans type content than redditors.
It’s the Conservative/Elon Musk version: censorship and lies are “Freedom of Speech”, falsehoods are truth, everything is projection, etc.
