This is literally just the r/nyt subreddit about The New York Times.
Given he apparently takes inspiration from Elon Musk, it’s only a matter of time until u/spez starts adding post view limits unless you pay extra.

Someone should answer the phone because we all fucking called it.
What’s next in the Reddit bingo?
The removal of old reddit?
Limiting the number of posts we can see per day as a normal user?
Buy upvotes?
The slippery slope logical fallacy doesn’t count when there is actual factual evidence.
Yep, they will absolutely do that. Only a matter of time.
I’m 100% out once that happens. Well technically I pretty much am currently. I may look at r/all for a couple minutes then head over here for a good portion of time.
The comments on Reddit have declined since the purge, it’s unbelievably shitty now.
How has it survived! Definitely getting the axe!
Honestly, I’m surprised Old Reddit has lasted this long at all, even before all this.
The sad part is, I can absolutely see this happening. Not as an outright “gib money get updoot” but something more roudabout but effectively the same thing.
“Be heard louder with Reddit Premium! Your comments on posts will be displayed closer to the top for others to see!”
To reiterate, the above is just something I mocked up. May not be upvotes, but still rigging threads by paying Reddit money. I just wouldn’t be surprised at this point.
Include me in the screenshot when this happens!
It’s sort of what World of Warcraft did with gold.
The gold farms were making TONS of money selling illegal gold in much the same way upvote farms are making a killing.
Upvotes are free for them to give, and they would have a money printer on their hands.
Reddit will go away for non logged in users.
See what stupid shit Musk pulled with Twitter a month ago, and that’ll be what Reddit does in a few days.
Old reddit and New reddit will probably cease to exist when sh.reddit is ready.
What’s the difference between new.reddit and sh.reddit? They look nearly identical, but with different margins and padding.
I don’t really know because I haven’t spent much time with it. I do remember either in one of the mod summits or somewhere that Spez admitted that new reddit was bad and that they were already working on the next version of reddit, which is what sh.reddit is supposed to be. New reddit is an abomination and I’ve only ever used it for settings old reddit does not have.
But to be honest with you, I haven’t really spent any time on sh.reddit because you used to not be able to log in to it.
At this point I wouldn’t be surprised if they removed the ability to comment.
Well have a look at this and reflect on what beautiful behaviours it will bring forward:

Crypto is #4 in trending topics.
Reddit is Twitter now.
lmao I can’t believe the doomers were right and reddit tied itself to crypto bullshit. Absolutely unreal.
That whole crypto thing is scary as hell.
Unless you hold your secret keys then you don’t really own your money.
Everything you listed is on the table for them. I hope they do it so it dies quickly.
Anyone can easily buy upvotes.
