deegeeseThat’ll be $49.99, pal.
Goferking0Which reddit probably won’t give any to the creator
Actually, they will, a part at least
squibletOnly if the person has received a total of 10 special arrows recently, or something.
Curiously enough, 99% of awards go to people ineligible for a share of the money.
And since reddit decides can change requirements at any point
I guarantee the vast majority of gold rewards will be going straight into Reddit’s pocket. The contrived requirements to get a payout are designed to keep as much of it for themselves as they can, while still saying it’s “possible” for users to get some of the money for themselves.
You mean the commentor? Or thread creator? Nothing for anyone creating the content that warranted the upvote?
Think just who it’s given too not any other part. You’ve thought this out more than reddit did
SonotsugipaaYou’ve gotta pay, pal.
Don’t call me pal. But you know what friend? I think it would be hilarious if this image started getting used ironically.
I’m not your friend buddy

ErianOk, ntsc.
GhostalmediaHold it. Hoooooold it.
I hope people start posting pictures like this instead of paying for them
CashewNut 🏴I love the vibrant colours of that vomit.
NepentheI was just thinking the same thing. More than the usual amount of love went into that one, and most people probably wouldn't even stop to notice. The subtle fade-out at the top. That is some pleasing vomit.
I had to pause for a second. Most high def emoji I’ve ever seen. Can’t believe I just typed that.
Look at that subtle off-green gradient. The tasteful thickness of it… Oh my god, it even has ornaments…
willyaThis entire screenshot looks horrible.
Fifty bucks? Are bits made of gold?
whalerossIt’s only there to make the other ones look cheap.
It didn’t succeed.
ShustOneNot for us but definitely for others. This kind of scale up pricing is all the rage because it works so well. Either some sucker buys the top thing as a flex or someone sees the $1 as a discount. Either purchase is a win. And us not buying it would be true at almost any price point so no loss of sale there.
Used to browse Reddit daily. Once Reddit is Fun closed, I only go on to search for an answer.
Now it is Lemmy daily.
Yep, same. Multiple times daily, created posts, connected a lot.
Deleted all my accounts.
And if you deleted all your comments… they undeleted everything.
I ran a script but they have never worked well for bulk deleting, reddit always says deletion works even when it fails.
I have been paranoid about this, so I check every few weeks to see if they got restored secretly (I used a script to first overwrite and then delete all of my contributions, about 4k comments and a several OC posts).
So far it seems to still be deleted
I don’t think this was true. The actual issue was you couldn’t see posts you’d made to private subreddits. Once those subreddits reopened, it made posts visible in their profiles and made it look like they hadn’t deleted everything.
Same for me. Once RIF died my time with Reddit died as well. But i really try not tongo back, but sometimes some answers are only easily found there.
FlakyThe way Spez and the admins treated Apollo’s dev was more than enough for me to leave Reddit, and that’s before the shit he said about the vulnerable users of his site (essentially seeing them as dollar signs - I know CEOs are scummy but holy fuck).
EdibleFriendwhats this about the vulnerable users?
A lot of third party integrations to improve accessibility for visually or physically impaired users were caught up in the restrictions designed to destroy RIF Apollo etc. Spez vaguely said reddit would fix that, but it basically just resulted in improvements to base reddit for those users thrown into the bottom of a low priority dev list never to see the light of day.
I used to check Reddit pretty often, at least once every other day. Now I’ve found I use Lemmy rarely. I use Reddit more often still but that’s just to look up questions or get help with some issue. I mostly just use Discord now, and am only checking here because it’s down.
u/K4sum11 on Reddit if you’re curious
kratoz29Same but with Sync for Reddit instead.
Open Lemmy, nothing new, close Lemmy. Open Lemmy again to check if something new. Nothing new.
That’s the idea. Helps you not become a dopamine addicted mess.
This. There’s a handful of subreddits that aren’t on Lemmy that I miss but generally speaking I’ve got everything I need on Lemmy. I’m also a lot more engaged here.
And once I can figure out a better wildcare search for the fediverse, I won’t visit Reddit at all!
Very MTX-heavy mobile game aesthetic.
Audacity aside, wtf is the difference between the $1.99 and 3.99 gold???
Slight definition on the $4 one
´◔‿ゝ◔`)━☞ $2
Zagorath$2 is flat (apart from its rounded edges). $4 rises to a raised ridge in a line down the middle.
It’s “3D”
You lose more money
Afaik, it’s multiples. So it goes 2 gold, 3 gold, 5 gold, etc. This means nothing to the vast majority of users, but a tiny minority may possibly get some of that money passed onto them if they fulfill Reddit’s myriad of requirements to be part of the “Contributor Program” .
GreenPlasticSushiGrassElectrolytes.
It’s what plants crave
penquinOne flat and the other is 3D
It would be great if Lemmy’s devs implemented loosely based (for fair use) copies of these and gave them for free :)
I thought Reddit killed off gold earlier this year?
This is “New Gold”, soon to be replaced with “Gold Classic”
Reddit was always this way.
MacedWindowEach of those arrows is uglier than the last
What a garbage place.
