What If Reddit Was Paid with No Ads and Privacy Focused?

Would you pay monthly to use Reddit with No Ads at all and privacy focused?


Most people on reddit consume content, low value content most of the time, no one would pay for that.

Creators and niche topics are not what keeps reddit alive.


the people on HN might go for it. The hundred-odd million who spend time on r/pics, r/aww, r/publicfreakout etc...hard pass. No one's paying money to upvote cute pets and public streetfights.


I find r/AskReddit more interesting.


I'm not seeing ads on Reddit anyway. uBlock origin does this perfectly!


what about privacy?


No. Will their leadership, and policy change?? They dont need more money, they abuse what they get.
