Even a $.1/month charge would probably be a death sentence right now, but I believe something drastic will have to be done to verify people's identity on social platforms in the coming years. LLMs are indistinguishable from humans at this point, it's only a matter of time before Reddit, Hacker News and others become completely unusable due to bots, if they aren't already. Even worse than unusable/annoying is being subtly manipulated. I'm shifting away from these platforms to X because there I can follow real, well known experts. I can still be manipulated by the replies of bots, but it's easier to separate the information from the people I follow and others.
