    The porn. Right now the porn subreddits are mostly advertising for subscription sites like OnlyFans, Fansly, Patreon, etc. Reddit definitely thinks they can stop being used to advertise subscription sites and just become one themselves.

    There’s not a single subreddit I will pay to visit, there’s also not one I would have paid to visit in the past. Fuck Spez, fuck Musk, and fuck censorship…

      The goal is to indoctrinate people 10-30 with these values so if anything, it will be promoted to the front page more often and free. More eyes= more conversions.

    They will start with the porn. That’s where they’ll get the least pushback. Then it will spread to all NSFW subreddits.

    r/politics, r/news, and any adjacent subs that post similar content. because these 2 types of subs are the major engagement in reddit. followed by r/pics, funny, askreddit. bots make up half of the comments on reddit too.

      I login to lemmy often enough that I would notice. Lemmy grew a lot overnight the last time reddit pissed off a lot of their userbase with one decision. There’s good and bad to that, it was nice to see this place grow, but it became much less friendly when redditors flocked here. I’d expect more of that.

        Interestingly, often times it was the old users who were the most toxic as a result of this, aggressively citing Eternal September and going elitist.

        So, we can do a lot to prepare on our end.

      I would pay not to see that sub. Joking wouldn’t pay a penny to Reddit. Why would anyone.
