Someone posted this over on Reddit right when it happened and I apparently saved it. I'm cleaning out my bookmarks and came across it. I hought you'd like to see why it's good news that we found Lemmy.
Edit: I took a screenshot in case it gets deleted.
Reddit's recent monetisation schemes can all be summed up as "demanding a cut from people profiting off the site" and this is just more of that. They've done absolutely nothing to prevent astro-turfing and manipulation, now they're just going to offer it as a service.
