If 20m is paid, they'll double it next year. Reddit is just a landlord raising rents to unaffordable rates rather than evicting tenants.
And they don't produce or moderate content. Rent-seeking middlemen.
Fediverse socials are very nice once they're up and running, we need better default settings and easier inter-instance interaction for less technical users, but I'm optimistic they're a vast improvement on a centralized model. If you don't like your instance, you can pack up and leave.
What about just packing up and closing the reddit.com tab

The fediverse is such a fricking cope. It's designed by developers and YOU CAN FRICKING TELL BECAUSE IT'S HORRIBLE.

I have a Reddit account on which I post anonymized lewds
I have a shitposting account
I have a second shitposting account I made to play with the API right before the announcement
My total karma is about 15K. I’ve deleted a 20K karma account before with absolutely no second thought.
If Reddit evaporates, the only impact to my life will be that this site slows down. I touch grass at least twice a day.

The only point you'll ever have is that you represent the sad, fedora-wearing, bloated face of capitalism in the 21st century.
