I’m not sure if this is new, but when I clicked on the /r/pics protest post link from the frontpage here, I was redirected to this: https://old.reddit.com/premium

I’m not sure if this is well-known or not that they’re pushing it now, but it’s the first time I’ve seen it, especially on old.reddit.

      If an instance of lemmy becomes commercialized, other instances will just defederate it, cutting it off from like 90 percent of users and content

      It probably will, but there could be a good few years where it’s growing and can get investment as it grows it’s user base because it’s good. The push for profit will turn into advertising trash eventually.
