“Thanks for the reward kind stranger!”
Reddit gold was the beginning of the end. I’ve seen the cycle before on older forums
Reddit gold was introduced in 2010, only two years after they started letting users create subreddits.
It was pretty annoying seeing posts with very little actual activity pushed to the top. I had an app that ignored the reward prioritization though.
Edit: check out my SoundCloud!
So I had a significant event happen to me recently that made international news. I also run an email service that I’m trying to get off the ground. A few of my friends asked why I didn’t promote my business since I was all over the news. I don’t have a better explanation than I would be disgusted seeing someone do that, so I wouldn’t do it myself.
Replying to yourself is also super tacky. 🤢
It took this comment for me to notice
Lmao I had to correct my initial down vote here because I was like “What a jerk! Why are there so many upvotes for th— ohhh…”
Why does gratitude fill you with rage?
It’s cringey but maybe because I never really took imaginary points and likes seriously.
Reminds me of “thanks for the gold kind stranger!” Ughh.
But at the same time I don’t get pissed or would hate them for it necessarily, I’d just think it’s a little cringe and move on.
I’ve done that, but only because I thought I was supposed to lol. Since I saw a lot of people doing it at the time, and inferred it was being polite under the logic that you should usually thank someone for a “gift”.
Cuz their acting like this is something to be proud of. It’s really not.
Ah I see, that makes sense
Whenever I like a comment on the internet I’ll go back to it regularly to read it again, seeing these grateful edits always make my day!!
For real, though: why do people hate this?
They’ve seen it more than once.
Being trained on a mainstream internet built on flashing novelty in front of our eyeballs every 0.006 seconds, seeing something said similarly in multiple places begins to fill them with rage.
Lol 🧂
I’ve left comments, forgot about them, rewatched the video years later and noticed that I got a ton of likes for saying the dumbest shit imaginable. YouTube commenters are an interesting crowd.
I’ve also seen someone get the most likes under a video for a comment they later changed to “Luigi Mangione is a hero”. Now those types of edits I can get behind.
Checks highest upvoted comment for any edits
Oh thank god
I dunno, I find it cute.
And their comment is another tired-ass pun copied and pasted from another video
