Hello all,

I hope I don't incur too much flak for this post, but I have been wondering about how reddit profits from its users. I left reddit mobile along with most everyone else when RIF went down, but since then I've still been browsing reddit on desktop with uBlock origin. So they aren't getting ad revenue from me, but I do occasionally make comments. Aside from the principle of still contributing to reddit when I know I shouldn't be, is it possible that doing so still earns revenue for reddit?

Thanks friends

Thank you everyone. I'm humbled. It's just that reddit has been a daily routine for me for years, and giving up RIF was relatively easy compared to desktop browsing, but I suppose now is better than never.

it was an 11 year habit that I replaced it with kbin overnight.

the fediverse is functionally more interesting anyway.
