Reddit paywalls to hit this year as paid subreddits confirmed

Does this mean Lemmy will gain more new users?

This'll fail miserably unless the paid subreddits are like... onlyfans or something.

This is just the next logical step towards locking the NSFW communities behind a paywall. But, I don't think it's for the revenue, mostly. It's an essential step in tidying up their image and dealing with the regulations around internet censorship and linking real identities to users. They'll make way more money off of marketing to and marketing data of a fully identified userbase. They've already profiled them, linking those profiles to real people will just multiply the value of those profiles. Reddit is Facebooking themselves, selling out their users to turn community into a product. I guess since nobody google searches anymore, and Google did the same thing, we could also call it Googling themselves.
