It sounds like you are blaming the authors of the actually useful information here.
There used to be an ecosystem: real people share their knowledge and experience, driving users to Reddit, and in exchange, Reddit provides free storage and a convenient collaboration environment.
I admit, it's not easy to monetize real people's contributions. But, regardless, the fact is, that Reddit destroyed this ecosystem. I can no longer use Reddit conveniently. And as a mildly active OP on Reddit I don't see, why Reddit should keep benefiting from my contributions while I can no longer benefit from Reddit. I think it's fair.
