Of course they want a constant revenue stream. I want a constant revenue stream as well, isn’t it normal?

Whether the price is worth paying for you is a different matter but wanting to profit off your hard and good work is completely natural to me.

I hate shorts and I hate seeing them in my subscription feed.

I definitely wouldn’t be as upset as I am right now. I would consider paying to be able to continue to use the service.

However, right now, I wouldn’t come back to Reddit even if they called off the whole thing and decided to leave free access to the API. I have zero trust in Reddit after all that happened. To be honest I’m kinda glad it all went down like this. At least we got to know their real colors.

This is absolutely fantastic news! Sync was pretty much my only way of browsing reddit for a long time. This should make the transition much easier.

BTW: Hi everyone, that’s my first comment on Lemmy!
