      The Creator Program wasn’t just a feature, it was a full blown movement that rocked Reddit, on the blockchain no less. You all built communities. You created art. Your art became memes. You put a cone on it. You even got paid (a first!). At the end of the day, you all made magic.

    Bahahaha this is the first I’ve heard of these. The fact that they even tried to hop on this whole bandwagon is hilarious to me.

      I still use reddit and had not heard of this either.

      Apparently “it was a full blown movement that rocked reddit”. Where on reddit? I feel like they couldn’t point it out.

        I feel like I joined Reddit so long ago that I can’t really remember the sign up process but I do dimly seem to remember that I had to unsubscribe from a bunch of stuff your default subscribe to because it was all garbage.

        So probably what happened is they only advertised it in the stupid subs like that one where they still think lol catz is peak humour.

    Honestly they’re leaving money on the table by not doing this. They have a horde of mindless whales that are physically unable to stop themselves from buying the Golden LaSnooSnoo and posting about making it “moon”, the place is crypto bro idiot headquarters

    Reddit already got on my bad side when they got rid of their Public Access TV thing, the only good idea they’ve had in years; removing 3rd party apps was the last straw for me.

    Blows my mind that more people didn’t leave over that. I was expecting a mass exodus, a la Digg.

      I wasn’t expecting say, a mass exodus. But I was certainly surprised at how few people made the jump. Unsurprisingly, a lot of the best content creators and bot defenders didn’t continue using reddit, so the quality dropped like a stone.
