It sucks because journalists do need to make money to continue reporting. Spamming sites with ads is bad for the reader’s experience too. Not totally sure what the solution is.

I’m honestly just over reddit. Even if all the apps came back for free I’d probably try sticking with lemmy. Not a fan of a company that clearly doesn’t give a shit about their userbase. Good for the third party devs who are making it work with subscriptions but I’m not willing to pay a subscription to go straight into reddit’s pocket.
