Long time Joey for Reddit user and the thought of having to experience reddit without it is not something I’m willing to do. I got over a decade from the site, and despite never spending any money there, I’ve gotten my money’s worth.
wasn’t that the developer that baited and switched his app from free to grow the base and then turned it into an ad ridden app with expensive upgrade to get rid of ads?
The irony of now reddit doing the same for him. 🤣🤣
no, I meant the developer of “Joey for Reddit”. He basically built a huge userbase while it was free, then bam, video ads between posts and pay to remove them.
