I legit cannot tell if this is real or not… it sounds terrible but also something that Reddit would do and think is great.
78 0 ReplyI could have sworn that reddit did in fact announce a similar system a few weeks ago. Or did I eat an onion?
21 0 ReplyThey announced earlier this month that they're considering paid subreddits. No idea where that's at.
But yeah, this satire only works precisely because they've specifically expressed their interest in further opportunities for paid subscriptions.

Well, I ate the title. It seems perfectly reasonable to me.

12 0 ReplyEt Al, why are you always posting rage bait that barely even qualifies as satire?

4 0 ReplyYou're not supposed to eat the onion bro
19 0 ReplyLmao, damn, I forgot to check what community this was. I definitely believe that they would do such a shitty thing, though.

6 0 ReplyI ate the onion too. This is 100% something Reddit would do - give it a year and there's a solid chance you and I will be puking that onion back up as this becomes reality.

The present moderation is not too far from this. A lot of the subreddits are just shells of what they used to be. Most posts are purged by some reddit algorithm moderation bot. You can check this yourself with r/usenet.
