Has there been any indication that reddit may pay creators and moderators, like youtube and meta and other platforms do? or are they just expecting to pocket all the cash?

    Reddit is a selfish company who feeds on free labor! They will never pay mods or creators.

    How about you pay them instead for Reddit premium. After all, you get useless Reddit coins for your monetary sacrifice.

        I know what you mean. I would too. But I know they’re getting nothing so it’s not worth it.

        I only pay for YouTube premium tbh.

          I did pay YT. But I found myself not using it much.

          I intend to do awards and prizes and bounties on my server. 🤷‍♀️

          Nothing substantial. Just fun.

          May give away some of my watches I don’t use and stuff.
