[–] dminus@sh.itjust.works 10 points 3 years ago (2 children) I find it funny that a 3rd party app can be "profitable" but reddit cant be profitable without alienating a sizeable chunk of their userbase. Reddit has increasingly become a cesspit of racism and bigotry anyways, and I find Im going there less and less. I need to get used to how lemmy works and find my 3d printing people here. permalink fedilink source hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] Kissaki@feddit.de 3 points 3 years ago but reddit cant be profitable without alienating a sizeable chunk of their userbase Do those API prices make Reddit profitable? I highly doubt it. I'd never repeat their claims as if they were true. It's just bullshit reasoning.
