I used to pay for a reddit gold to support the site because Ai (naively) beloved it was a worthwhile investment in a website that connected disparate, niche communities and served as a repository of knowledge.
Don't I look like an idiot now. Fuck u/spez
Yup, same. Paid for premium to avoid ads. Have now canceled and poking around Lemmy and Mastedon to fill the niche.
Once my reddit gold ran out from buying Alien Blue, I've been paying for it ever since, since I wanted the site to succeed, and I never saw any of the ads. It felt like the right thing to do, but once all this shit with spez being a total dick went down, I cancelled my autopay, so it won't renew again.
Take that money and contribute it to a worthwhile cause on this instance. :)
We all did.
