Well that didn’t take long. Looks like they’re going the discord route and locking uploads + basic customization behind a subscription. You know, because we don’t already have enough of those.

Bluesky is working on a premium subscription that will add features like higher-quality video uploads and some profile customization options.

    I’m not the one complaining about having to pay for goods and services. If lemmy required a sub I would evaluate it against competing products and make a decision.

    I would not, however, make a post complaining about a company trying to fund its operations.

      My point was that the Fediverse works just fine without a subscription, the people upset about a subscription are not upset about the cost, but about what it represents (or more specifically, what it doesn’t).
