I agree, it feels cheap and pointless. If we wanted Reddit content that badly we’d still be on Reddit.

I mean, I want the reddit content, I just don't want reddit itself.

Idk why you personally are here, but many migrants (myself included) did NOT leave reddit because we dislike reddit's content; we left because the site is controlled an unaccountable Elon/Zuck wannabe whose every decision the last decade has made the site worse. Getting reddit's content (or something close to it) without contributing clicks to Spez's dreams of a big payday is EXACTLY why I'm here.
