Lol, so basically "we might give you money if we feel like it".
Here is another article it seems to have more info https://techcrunch.com/2023/09/25/reddit-will-start-paying-you-real-money-for-your-karma/
It's so bad... and what will happen is spam cheap bot content to get the gold amount necessary to get paid.
Question is who is just throwing $2 at comments? Should users just cut out the middleman and post their Venmo/Patreon handles or something?
If the app stores take a 30% cut then they are making 60cents off the $2 and Reddit takes in 40¢ while the user gets $1.
Just pay me the dollar directly, be sure to upvote, comment below and subscribe for more comments like this.
And it also excludes NSFW or other non-monetized content.
