Great! Now they want the final stab with content being created by bots. Haha
It’s already happening, spoilers!!!
Reddit’s post was distinctly non-specific about the dollar amounts people can expect to see
Lol, so basically “we might give you money if we feel like it”.
Here is another article it seems to have more info https://techcrunch.com/2023/09/25/reddit-will-start-paying-you-real-money-for-your-karma/
redditors need to earn at least 10 gold within a 30-day period — if they don’t reach the threshold, the balance rolls over. For users with between 100 and 4,999 karma, they will receive $0.90 per 1 gold. Once you earn more than 5,000 karma, you can earn $1 per gold.
It’s so bad… and what will happen is spam cheap bot content to get the gold amount necessary to get paid.
And it also excludes NSFW or other non-monetized content.
And subs can’t opt out
You should definitely post something for those sweet dollars then.
“Reddit, what’s the sexiest sex you’ve ever sexed? [Serious]”
Dollars? That seems optimistic to me. It would probably be an amount comparable to the change you’d find on the ground in a parking lot.
If you’re an extremely active user who has no life, and posts all day every day, then we might be talking dollars. Perhaps even double digits over the course of a year!
Reddit is dead
Desperate
What could possibly go wrong?
My
botsboys are about to make so much money for me.Me and the ~~ bots~~ boys whipping up some killer
recycled contentnew memes for the ~~ bots~~ reddit community to enjoy!
I bet this will be as lucrative as twitch streaming.
So us leaving did work :)
Who says there’s no innovation in tech companies today? lol
So many limits and restrictions, including getting ten gold a year, to cash out. I don’t see reddit having to give out much money here.
That’s hilarious. Was this the plan all along or was this more of a reactionary thing? I think it’s a mix of both.
Is there an app with minimal unobtrusive advertising?
