Reddit gold gives premium = no ads = no revenue. What theyve already failed to understand is no users = no revenue
Reddit gold gets rid of ads (for a month), but also costs money to offset the lack of ads...
Ublock Origin seemed to do the job for free well enough.
It also disables a lot of analytics, so you get a better experience than the paying customers, for free.
And wasn't their revenue/user something like $1.50 per month while gold is $5 iirc.... seems like they'd be making an extra $3.50 if a person was gifted gold
$1.50 per year iirc. They posted a whole load of monthly stats with the annual user income mixed in amongst them so that it didn't seem so bad.
The revenue calculations likely take gold into account.
At least the real rev/user would.
Plus they'd still sell your data even if you were paying for it so it's probably a chunk of the $1.50 and not the full amount.
