    Just fyi to prevent misinformation, reddit disabled buying coins when they announced it was being removed. So all these points are leftovers

      Also due to this people are even more willing to give out awards, since reddit announced that all coins will be removed from your account after September.

      The issue is, most of the people left on reddit are damn near addicts. Or those who weren’t directly affected by the api and therefor don’t care and just jump on the fuck spez cause hating ceos is cool*.

      (CEOs should be hated on don’t get me wrong, but for actual reasons and be held to that hate, not just hating for a trend)

        I saw some comments on a Reddit thread about the place picture saying things like, “Who’s spez?” Or “what did this spez person do?” It’s almost like they weren’t even on Reddit around the time of the protests to have a clue what people are upset about. There must be some percentage of Reddit that is just completely unaware.

          There definetly is a percentage who doesn’t know about the reddit situation. I would guess a large one.

      I never understood why people spend money on reddit. It’s fucking stupid.

        on top of that, Reddit rewards are disappearing soon so they are literally throwing money into a fire

        I remember the good old days when reddit managed to make a swastika one of the top google image results for EA Games or something, maybe Comcast.
