Comment on Some subreddits could be paywalled, hints Reddit CEO

Sure, if that’s how a really popular subreddit pays it’s moderators, it’s not unreasonable. We just know that isn’t what’s going on here.
In addition, it would be unreasonable to expect users of a free service to suddenly start paying for it without an extremely huge value boost which there’s been no mention of. If anything engagement will certainly go down, further reducing the value.
