Now For Reddit is going to go to a subscription service. It's not that popular but it's the one I like. I've not decided yet if I'm going to keep using it and pay for a subscription - it depends on how much per month it costs, for me the lack of NSFW isn't a deal breaker but Reddit's slimy behavior recently kind of is.

Don't pay for it. Every cent will go to Reddit for something that costs them fractions of a cent to do and reinforces that their decision to fuck everyone over was correct. Cold turkey that shit and fuggedaboutit.

That's another reason I'm leaning towards not paying for it - I replaced it on my phone's home screen with Jeroba and the physical habit of going on an app now brings me to Lemmy. I've intentionally opened Now for Reddit a few times to see what's going on with the app or see r/all in chaos post blackout, but it's always been with intent. And it's been remarkably easy to swap one habit for another, and I don't feel like I'm missing much, so why go back?

I have considered swapping Jeroba for my library's e-book app though... :/
