5$/month for premium is fair to remove ads, Youtube has a similar but more expensive option in their app. Removing the ability to use third-party clients altogether is dumb.
- brokenmachine 3y agoJust out of curiosity, how much would a site like reddit cost to run? From a quick google, they have 55M daily users. How much data would the average one use, and what would that cost? What about the other costs? How much would a not-for-profit reddit have to charge users for an ad-free experience?
- gibspaulding 3y agoHas HN ever released data on operating costs? HN is obviously a lot less featurefull than Reddit, but it'd be a good starting point to get an idea of what's possible. Damn, imagine a stripped down donation-funded text only Reddit clone run by something like the Wikimedia foundation or Archive.org.
