      I think the lesson that should be beginning to crystallise in people’s minds these days is that we have to pay. If we don’t, we get Facebook, Digg, Reddit, etc. We get inevitable enshitification. I mentioned Wikipedia because I think paying for it has sunk into many people’s minds already. And generally we don’t need everyone to pay. If the ones that can afford to spare a few bucks a month, do, it’ll be enough.

        What are you referring to “looking like Reddit”? And why would you want their API lock-in, paid ads disguised as content, and obvious AI bot posts?
