I mean people that didnt care about what reddit has done so far, will probably not care for this either and pay anyways, so they figured why not milk the idiots that are left.

That's nothing new though. With reddit premium you already got access to exclusive sub's.

Reddit. I said it, and I say it again: Reddit

Probably a good thing, imo. Better than selling data for AI farming and blitzing the site with ads. Hopefully it isn't the start of the entirety of Reddit going behind a subscription wall. Curating private digital communities is a good option.

Unless Reddit actually monetizes the process for content creators, in which case, we need them to open up their books - because then they'll be running a marketplace.
