    There is literally no need to pay reddit for a niche community, when one can just be created in an afternoon

    Unless they charge you to do that too.

      Who is “they”? You’ll need to pay for hosting, and a domain, but that’s like $5 per month and $20 per year, for one person. Nobody else would need to pay. I suppose the biggest issue is that most people don’t know how to do that anymore, and nobody wants to. It used to be something people got excited about when they were passionate about a hobby.

        Sorry I misunderstood. I thought the post I was replying to was regarding just create a new subreddit, if a different sub starts charging.

        But now that I’ve re-read it, it says “community” as here on Lemmy. So I misunderstood. :)
