Yeah, I have a feeling, just based on the fact that I've had a lot of posts do really well, that I could make some money from Reddit if they do that.

But I'm not greedy. I'm not rich either, but fuck them, I wouldn't participate if they asked me.

Take the money and donate to Lemmy? Idk, the way I see it, money in your hands is better than money in Reddit's hands. Your karma is going to be there anyways, the difference is merely deciding whether Reddit gets to keep the money or not.

It won't be retroactive, I'm sure. In order to do that, I would have to go back to being an active Reddit user, which I will not do. I am done with Reddit.
