    Wouldn’t it be ironic if this shit would be an even greater downfall for them than erasing third party apps? This whole giving-awards thing was pretty stupid to begin with and didn’t happen as much in the smaller subs I was subscribed to than in the big ones. It was mainly a way for Reddit to trick the hive mind into giving them money for someone pointing out stuff most people agreed on. Also: anyone remember Reddit selling their shitty nfts?

      It was also a fantastic, albeit kind of useless as you’re giving THEM money, way to bring visibility to posts that needed it… And now I see why they might be doing this. It’s like when Youtube removed dislikes. They want the corporate fee-fees to not be hurt so they remove the methods that allow us to express our dislike for something.
