To use web.snapchat.com, one must obtain a subscription to Snapchat+ for $3.99/month. This seems to be a reasonable fee for someone that avidly uses the service. I pay $4.99/month (or something) for Reddit Premium, which not only grants me 700 "reddit coins" per month (can be used to purchase awards, etc.), but access to the r/lounge VIP space, and most important of all: removes all advertisements from my Reddit experience; worth every penny. Snap's press release is vague about what $3.99/month buys you. Specifically, I'm curious whether the paid subscription eliminates advertisements and/or affects how Snap collects and shares paid subscribers' data.

This should only be an issue if you're using Reddit without an ad blocker on PC, or using the official app surely? Both of which are pretty insane
