Implementing changes on announcement (or lack thereof), with no warning or transition period, is entirely Elon-esque as well.

Reddit’s Contributor Program could earn you real money for your Reddit karma [Android Authority]. This mirror’s Twitter’s experiment to pay select top contributors [Washington Post].

Reddit not announcing the replacement for awards/coins yet totally makes sense if it will be something like this or crypto related, though they’re just uselessly kicking the backlash can down the road.

Lurkers by definition have no impact, besides their potential to eventually become a creator/participant. Having a high ratio of voters/commenters to creators is more important to surface quality content.

The Google Play listing says “contains ads” and “in-app purchases” just like Boost for Reddit, so I assume that means the same ad-supported model with pay to unlock additional features and remove ads. Though that could just be leftover code from the Reddit version.
