My friend sent me this, the current state of Reddit. (I left during the app issue and haven’t looked back)

    Are reddit paying contributors, moderators or people creating posts¿? If no then how are they claiming that buying a golden upvote supports contributors

      About 3 months ago? They killed off the old award system. Gold, platinum, ternium , and the 100 other things you could add to posts or comments with reddit coins were Thanos snapped out of existence.

      Now theres golden up votes where somehow if I spend real money and give something a golden upvote, the writer could receive real money (only for some countries). Don’t know all the details as I figured I wouldn’t be receiving any and wasn’t going to be giving any.
