It doesn’t look like they will. It looks like you have until September to use or lose. Also, it looks like if you bought premium, you’re just losing that “feature” with no replacement value for your money
It also looks like they are going to implement some kind of “contriburor” payment scheme.
So Reddit is going to go from letting users pay them to put lil .gifs on a post and letting a user see more comments at once, to paying users for their content.
Yeah that sounds like it’ll really increase profit, I can’t see any way that math doesn’t check out /s.
I think they are trying to, either, do an only fans type thing where people can pay the contributors directly and Reddit just takes a cut, or to try to draw more creators in and pay like YouTube based on traffic to them. Either way, I’m glad I’m no longer over there. It’s all too money grubbing for me.
I have an annoying amount of coins still. What do you think would be the best way to use them? If they’re not showing up at all, it seems moot to award the anti-reddit/changes comments or posts.
I do too. I was given premium because alien blue and something else so I have tons and tons of coins. I don’t think it’s worth giving Reddit the traffic to give them out, especially if they are all going to disappear in a. Couple months anyhow. My account is still active I just haven’t been to Reddit since the 11th June.
I had premium for maybe a year or two, back when it was first implemented. Coins just piled up because of it and Sync didn’t have the ability to award so I just forgot about them. (Or maybe it did have the feature and I’m a dum-dum)
Love Sync! I think I’ve purchased it like, 5 times across two Google accounts and the pro/dev/beta or whatever versions over the last 10 years.
I did have a question; if Lemmy were to introduce flairs, would you want to reimplement them? I absolutely loved being able to see which team someone supported on r/cfb so I knew whether or not I could respect their opinion.
This is very important to me.
I need to judge people based on their favorite teams…
Heyyy! Thanks so much for all the work you put into Sync (pro) over the years! Hopefully the transition to Lemmy hasn’t been too much of a hassle. Apologies for not seeing the award feature in the app - I’m clearly a dum dum :-D

How many? I have some too, but not many, just 800.
I’m showing 19.9K coins. So… a lot to give away.
Give them to me so I don’t have to see ads 😂
I’m an idiot, I can just award one of your comments. Send me a link and I’ll gild you.
I’m not sure it’s possible to give them out, but if you know a way I’ll gladly hand some over.

I very much enjoyed ripping out all of the award code in Sync for Lemmy.

If Lemmy devs add it sync will support it
Seems like the bigger challenge is getting a CFB community populated on the fediverse in the first place.
Yeah they basically didn’t care about the API stuff and I don’t know that they ever shut down.
I’m hoping people can start migrating but I’m not hopeful.

Ah I could only show awards, Reddit never allowed 3P apps to give / buy awards.
Ah gotcha. I’ll take being partially dum-dum. Have a great weekend!
