Premium’s been a thing for a long time, it used to be Reddit Gold several years ago. It also used to be cheaper, $3.99/mo but it went up multiple years ago.

They might be pushing it hard right now, though. Not sure. Maybe they’re trying to entice the people who were paying for 3PA features to pay Reddit instead or something.

I currently have premium, ad free is the only way Reddit is palatable even before all this went down and I bought it ages ago when I wanted to support a thing I used every day and also have had a couple awards that extended it, it expires in August. I won’t be renewing.

I was using Apollo and saw several polls. It forced an opened page in new Reddit to access the poll but it was an isolated post and not cluttered or hard to deal with or anything.

I voted to close a lot of subs before Monday. The subs I voted in are mostly still closed, too, so either they are using that as proof it was community voice or they aren’t big enough subs for the admins to force a reopening.

For me personally, either one, we all play in the same sandbox (for the most part).

But this particular magazine is on kbin so of course OP is interested in building up kbin.

We did it, Reddit!

Oh wait.

You shouldn’t need an extra account for Lemmy because kbin and lemmy are federating now, as does Mastodon, so they should all play together. Hopefully someone who knows a little bit more about how to call up a Lemmy community in kbin can help — I know in Lemmy, if the community isn’t already known by the instance, you can make it show up by putting the full URL in the search box within your instance (so like if I, through my lemmy.world account, wanted to join a kbin magazine that no one else has joined on my instance, in the search box I can make the instance find it by putting in https://kbin.social/m/((magazine name)) in the search and it’ll come up).

Hopefully someone at kbin can verify the best way to discover Lemmy communities over there so everyone can keep playing together.

I think kbin does @ instead of ! - sorry about that!

Edit: I fixed them to be links instead, hopefully that’ll help.

Oh, and, there’s an entire Lemmy NSFW instance if that’s your thing. lemmynsfw.com

On Mobile so I have limited ability to do a mass update of the database as listed, but -

There are a ton more, without a doubt.

Edit: fixed them all to be actual links and not just text to be more helpful cross platforms.

Looking forward to the update to roll through! All of the info here sounds excellent :)

Sorry, I’m very new to Lemmy and I was also posting from a mobile app so I just pulled the community. I’m not fully versed on the difference between how kbin communities name their short name versus Lemmy and I was pretty sure the ! didn’t work but I didn’t know it was @

I’ll store that away for the next time.

I was googling about Lemmy instances and got several front page results from the Self Hosted community.
