### About Community Tracking and helping #redditmigration to Kbin and the Fediverse. Say hello to the decentralized and open future. To see latest reeddit blackout info, see here: https://reddark.untone.uk/
Back before Reddit was mostly being run by VCs, Reddit gold was actually able to cover the site's running costs. They used to have a meter on the front page that showed every day when enough gold had been bought to pay for the day's hosting costs. They probably could have kept up that dynamic forever, but instead they insisted on going after even more profit.
Oh this is good to know. Now we know that it would be a (near) viable model for the Lemmyverse.
