Can someone explain to me why them removing these awards is pissing people off? I used reddit everyday for 13 years until all this shit went down. Never once cared about gold or whatever. Why does it disappearing matter to people? Just because they like to flex having it?
I’m with you on that. Everyone always joked about how dumb it was. My guess is the people that are mad are the ones who took that seriously and dumped a bunch of real money into buying a bunch of coins they now can’t use. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. Lol
Because they are going to create a coin linked with crypto, which is going to give money to people for using Reddit. I like that to be honest. The problem is that Reddit has never figured out how to tell if someone is a bot or not. If bots were bad before, they’ll totally dominate Reddit now. So Reddit will probably release a way to verify you’re human, which ties you to your identity, or to captcha the hell out of posting.
Anyways, for people thinking Reddit doesn’t already know who you are, I invite you to read about online fingerprinting. It’s almost impossible not to giveaway your identity nowadays. You’d have to follow guidelines that would make browsing pretty awful.
When your only goal is to get the company ready for the stock exchange listing, you strip away everything you can to save costs and be as profitable as possible, not add features. Especially if you are already known as a fan of how Musk “optimized” Twitter.

It‘s pissing me off, because Reddit invests more time into removing features, instead of adding new, highly requested ones.
Remember how cool their broadcasting thing was? Don’t remember the name but I do remember therapy gecko.

Yea, but adding features increases profit, because more people will spend more time on your platform and maybe even subscribe to premium.
