minus-squareryan@the.coolest.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up15·1 year agoI do wonder whether Relay and Narwhal will succeed in their attempts to move to a subscription model. If enough people are turned off by a recurring price to view Reddit, will the remainder be able to cover the costs?
minus-squarehoshikarakitaridia@lemmy.fmhy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up4·1 year agoOn one hand I agree, on the other hand the original point of contention was price per request, and less people = less requests.
