It’s graphically very pretty, at least, and I’m gonna miss the place.

      Some one had to.

      Especially the gold and plat that gave coins with them. But also, if you had Reddit premium (something else I never understood) you got a monthly supply

          The part about them giving away free credits you could use on awards is definitely true. I somehow came into thousands of free credits which I spent on awards to gild comments I really jived with.

          I refused to give any actual money to Reddit for them, but happily paid for Apollo Ultra, which explains why I’m here now.

          Fuck u/spez

        something else I never understood

        a monthly subscription that gave you Reddit Gold perks, i.e. no ads, access to /r/lounge, and the ability to sort saved post and comments Into categories (which was pretty neat).

          I received reddit gold a number of times. Never meant anything. The “lounge” was just a silent place you could access. No posts, no interactions. Just an empty private place. That was a long time ago to be fair. Maybe it became awesome. I doubt it.

            Just like a lounge at an airport then, a place to chill out and relax before or after a stressful business day.
