Gold was always dumb. Why spend money on upvotes.
The fact that people actually ever bought it (and said thank you for it) was super weird to me.
Gold used to be a great way to support Reddit covering its server costs back when the admins were focused on sustainable operation rather than maximising profit
It was a way to support nice and friendly website back then, sort of like donations
Yup, and you got some nifty features, like seeing which comments are new since the last time you visited.
