I think we just underestimate the amount of people who think like that

I remember when reddit gold was there to pay server costs. There was a little bar on the side to show how much % was covered per day. I had it for quite awhile. But then I hit financial trouble and had to cancel. By the time I could afford to give back they got greedy and I couldn’t in good faith keep giving them money.

Reddit could have been a non-profit like Wikipedia. But they wanted all the money.

I gladly would have paid $2.50 per month to access reddit as it was. But I guess they didn’t want my money or because they couldn’t have all of my money they weren’t interested.
