I just install Reddit official app to see watch they offer. And holy cow. They are selling NFT-like stuff.

Instead make a better app, they give use this.

    They want everyone to use their shitty app so yours forced to see the avatars of other posters, thus subliminally making you want an avatar to “fit in”

    When I used infinity all you saw was the username of who made a post or comment, and the content they posted itself. You don’t need avatars for reddit, its an anonymous website(for now)

          Well yeah, like I said, they (read: spez and tencent) are pursuing quarterly rapid growth over viable long term solutions. But instead they are burning their business

            And copying and idolizing another guy who doesn’t know what he’s doing at the former birdsite.

            At least Zuck knows when to shut up.

      In the few months before the end I kept seeing people inexplicably complimenting other people’s avatars. I wasn’t sure what that was about until this, and now I wonder if they had people intentionally doing so to make others jealous or something.
