  • Starting today, you will no longer be able to purchase new coins, but all awards and existing coins will continue to be available until September 12, 2023.

    Thats a non existant notice period and frankly either a knee jerk or the plan from the start. Its also in line with the new "core vision" of reddit. Goodbye, reddit.

    so this is a particularly tough moment for me as we wind these products down.

    Products, ey? Their intentionally designed to not feel loke them.

    we want to both make Reddit simpler and a place where the community empowers the community more directly.

    redditors be able to express themselves in fun ways and feel joy when their content is celebrated.

    You cant do that directly, you need to give people a reason to trust you. Trust your not twisting their words for your ends. This wouldnt be so bad if you didnt burn up all that trust. New Reddit, to be blunt, fake paridises are utterly disturbing to almost all humans. New Reddit, go ahaid, use tools to make users beleave there in a room of attractive people all giving you welcoming smiles, most are going to run for the hills

    Note: As indicated in our User Agreement past purchases are non-refundable. (Fuck you)

    We took your digital stuff that you paid for in actually useful green papers

    If you’re a Premium user and would like to cancel your subscription before these changes go into effect, you can find instructions here.

    Now, NOW!!!! KILL YOUR TIES TO REDDIT

    EDIT: Yes, do chargebacks instead
