In case anyone missed it, it will cost 1000 Community Points or, more importantly, $5/subreddit to basically get some sort of "subreddit premium" status. The $5 is for users who don't accumulate 1000 CP's per month to retain their subreddit-premium status.
I've been on Reddit since 2011 and feel very bittersweet about all this. Reddit has changed drastically since I first joined so I already mourned the earlier days of Reddit but this really feels like the last naio in the coffin. On the other hand, I wouldn't have discovered Lemmy without Reddit and I see so much potential here so that is the silver lining in all of this.
