I couldn’t care less about such a thing (it’s not like I could use it with Sync for Reddit anyway) but I genuinely thought these gimmicks were already dead?
I definitely recall some redditors commenting on something like “if awards still exist I would give you one right away”.
Can I transfer my awards from Reddit to Lemmy? /s
I think they reintroduced them at some point since nobody was buying premium, and their cashflow tanked.
LOL.
So people really pay for this?
I might head to the desktop to see what it is as I have never paid for gold… The only way I got it one day (and I don’t even think I “enjoyed it” was because of the Alien Blue iOS client which gave away something like 4 years of Gold if I remember correctly).
The existence of whales in mobile games is fascinating by itself, of course people will pump money into awards.
