I’m guessing that they’ll sell Reddit Gold for money (or give subscribers a monthly stipend), then share a (small) portion of the money they made to contributors when they receive and then sell back said gold.
Third party apps cost a lot in terms of server usage but contributed nearly nothing in terms of value. Money changing hands is normally very profitable. Way more than ads.
How is this supposed to actually make them money? Remember, third party apps died for their profit incentives.

They contributed lots in terms of value, just not straight up cash value.
