    My initial reaction was to get pissed, but then I remembered I don’t care anymore.

    Reddit policies now affect me as much as National Holidays in Mongolia.

    I think this is a great idea and they should implement it immediately. Spez is charting a bold new direction, fighting back against every instinct of logic or sanity.

    Looking forward to the next fediverse boom.

    People really need to remember how easy it is to create a forum of their own. There is literally no need to pay reddit for a niche community, when one can just be created in an afternoon. Hell, you can just spin up a community on Lemmy. But of course reddit will delete and block any posts with information about moving a subreddit somewhere off-site.

      Unless they charge you to do that too.

        Who is “they”? You’ll need to pay for hosting, and a domain, but that’s like $5 per month and $20 per year, for one person. Nobody else would need to pay. I suppose the biggest issue is that most people don’t know how to do that anymore, and nobody wants to. It used to be something people got excited about when they were passionate about a hobby.

          Sorry I misunderstood. I thought the post I was replying to was regarding just create a new subreddit, if a different sub starts charging.

          But now that I’ve re-read it, it says “community” as here on Lemmy. So I misunderstood. :)
