Thats a real fuckin rough low point
That’s a long hard look at yourself in the mirror moment, that is.
i’m normally not effected like this but this single sentence made me shiver and let out a silent “oh my” for some reason
I think I know what they’re talking about. A few years ago I believe Reddit was using the MaGiC of BlOcKcHaIn for storing Reddit avatar outfits, and if you had enough karma they gave you a couple options for free when they were rolling it out. They were stored in some sort of wallet or something and could be shuffled around, like a fucking Reddit NFT but the website actually used them to display certain images on your profile.
They gave me one of these too…
Yeah I also remember getting like an “invite” to invest before their IPO and it was such a shitty thing that made it so obvious the end was coming. It wasn’t long after that the API changes came and all was lost
Fuck. Remember those outfits. By the older Gods I glad I jumped ship when the API change happened
NFT avatars are still a thing.
So glad to know Reddit is continuing to support such an incredible feature. What would anyone do without purchasable NFT avatars? I think when I jumped ship for the third party app stuff, they were doing special limited run avatars that were like $100 each. I’m sure it’s even better now!
these are regular ones.
You can easily just screenshot them.But that won’t give the user a sense of pride and accomplishment.
That’s a wake up call right there
I deleted my main account after getting a 200 day “reddit streak”
If that happened to me I’d just throw my phone into the river and contemplate my life choices, maybe never enter the web ever again
That’s why I left reddit. After receiving my second award like that I realized I may have had a big problem.
Spent 6 months away from social media before I came and found Lemmy
Oh shit, and I thought being a top redditor was the highest point.
