"No money" well, there can be some if you donate to https://www.buymeacoffee.com/kbin as per the About page at the bottom of the page.

Yeah I guess I'm old, I've been on those for 10+ years and didn't realise they don't allow new members. My bad (no irony, I am actually 42 years old).

Why not go private? alpharatio, mac-torrents, myanonamouse, PTP, BTN, RED, there are plenty of options.

I'm sorry

:-D Don't be, I'm glad you got the information out for everyone here without giving too much traffic to reddit. Thank you for your answer.

I trust you but where do you find that information if I may ask?

If it goes as well as voat or 8chan it won't be making much money. If any.

I have no idea if voat still exists to be honest, and I'm not going to check. But it is (or was) a prime example of what happens when there is no moderation. Crazies take over and there is no more discussion.

I guess that's a possibility, but where will spez find masochistic people who have to deal with abuse, spam, CP, far-right bullshit holocaust deniers every second of their day for free? Reddit mods may seem on a power trip and almighty super proud people but they are still what keeps reddit not turning into voat or 8chan. And they do it for free. Then reddit reaps the profits. Something's not right.

r/Videos already said they will not reopen unless reddit makes changes to their recent decisions. I'm not very optimistic but I hope other main subs will follow. Because let's face it, a 2 days blackout is not going to accomplish much. A protest should end only if the leaders die or accept to the demands of their people, not just 2 days.
