I did, but they weren't a fan of the paid model for interaction: https://www.reddit.com/r/RedditAlternatives/comments/147qzfb...

I swear, the current protests have shined a very odd light on the average commenting Redditor, they want

* The website to be free

* The API to be cheap

* The ability to use a 3rd party app that does not track, advertise, or monetize you in any way

* VCs to continue to pour hundreds of millions of dollars to run the site and never ask for an ROI

Good luck kids

That's just the average internet user. They want something for nothing and often get it.

If you do ask for a few dollars a month you have to provide a ton of perceived value. That's despite the fact that they would spend it on snacks without hesitation.

That is the sad truth, the minds of most people disintegrate completely from all kind of logic or soundness when "free" is in the equation. People line up for long times to get free food that would've cost them a couple of bucks, people who are highly paid spend hours and weeks of their life arguing on the internet about why they can't and won't pay $5 for some software or online service.

As patience of creators and curators begin to run more thin, today's information society will split into tiers of those who pay and get good information vs those who demand free and will splash around in the filth of the free information sewers. The filth being ads, spyware, malware, low quality content, spiritually harmful content, government propaganda and worse.
