A little extra traffic will go to reddit… but fuck them. They’re taking monetary value away from your account, so ya might as well use the coins you have as you see fit (while you still can). Fuck u/spez and fuck reddit

      Oh, I’ve been gone. Deleted all my accounts except one, and never went back… until I saw that the coins would go away. Figured I’d put them somewhere fun real quick.

      Not surprisingly, the first comment on the post I awarded (on r/pics) was a 10y premium account with the most basic-ass response that was “totally not a reddit shill”.

      Verbatim, they commented:

      “Ok, it’s been weird… but weird stuff is what the place is all about!”

      Take from that what ya will, but looks AI generated to me. Doesn’t matter, I’ve been loving bullshitting around the fediverse since the day I joined and have relegated reddit to the level of quora. It might answer some questions if I’m searching for something specific, but I’ll be asking around here first

        “Go back to reddit and interact with is some more fellow spez haters” sounds more like a post that was written by a reddit bot shill

          I mean… your rational has merit. I don’t really have a way to definitively prove I’m not a “reddit bot shill.” I would assume my grammer, wording, or whatever, would kinda show I’m not a bot?

          Am I bot and don’t even know it yet? Hell of an identity crisis, that’s for sure
