I'm not sure if this is new, but when I clicked on the /r/pics protest post link from the frontpage here, I was redirected to this: https://old.reddit.com/premium

I'm not sure if this is well-known or not that they're pushing it now, but it's the first time I've seen it, especially on old.reddit.

old.reddit.com will be the next spez target. Why run it when you can have everyone on the main site.

At this point they will have to pry my money from my cold dead hands.

Lol oh Reddit.. you're funny.

They should take out the "Help support Reddit" phrase so they get more signups

I had a premium account on there for many years, often through being awarded "gold" on posts and the rest of the time through just paying for premium because it was worth it to me to remove the ads (without having to use my ad-blocker) and have the other usability tweaks (as I preferred to reddit on desktop.) I cancelled the recurring payment at the start of this API debacle, because I don't need to be supporting a company which does that.

I'm terribly curious how the money which would be brought in by a user maintaining a premium subscription measures up against the money they'd be making forcing the crappy malware official client on that user and showing them ads.

Wow, it was $29.95 a year. I canceled mine the other day and deleted my accounts today. Fuck Reddit.

Haha. This is where the Fediverse can take over if people don't take the piss.

Some years ago, my favourite tracker (The Box) went kaput - and I've known many others go down due to various issues - one of which is usually financial strains.

So people can donate - for someone earning 300 a week, it'd be trivial to throw 30 in the pot just one time in a year...

So sure, To be valued by Reddit, you must pay $50 per year - and if you don't, then you're not a customer, you're a commodity. Creators do so because they feel compelled to create and share, Mods do so because they have a personal need to contribute whether they get paid or not.

So the ONLY answer is to say 'Sure, we'll carry on - but it's clear we aren't valued by Reddit - so we'll do it outside'.
