“I think the existing, altruistic, free version of Reddit will continue to exist and grow and thrive just the way it has,” Huffman said. “But now we will unlock the door for new use cases, new types of subreddits that can be built that may have exclusive content or private areas, things of that nature.”

Reddit would surely have to ban users from creating new subreddits for certain (previously allowed) topics, or else users would just create an alternative "free" subreddit and everyone would post there, right? This can't work like something like YouTube Premium originals or else they're going to have to pay certain popular people to post to the paywalled subs - but nobody uses Reddit to follow individuals.

A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.
