Reddit has entered the "milk this bitch dry" phase of any publicly traded company. Took longer than I thought it would, honestly. They haven't exactly made great choices for the user base. I'm sure the shareholders are stoked, though.

Just created https://old.reddit.com/r/RedditAlternatives/comments/1ipfaz0/with_reddit_announcing_paywalled_subreddits_this/

I'm always cautious with large subs and direct links, they tend to remove those quite quickly

God bless you for linking to old.reddit.com. I wonder if this will be the year they get rid of it.
