minus-squareWhey Isolate@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up7·1 year agoCrazy-ish idea, but maybe Lemmy could make a feature where instances can have custom awards similar to Reddit gold and stuff, and users can buy them to both award posts they like and financially support the instance host
minus-squareZpiritual@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up5·1 year agoHope not, trophies and award whoring is just as bad as karma whoring and neither is a thing here and lemmy is better off because of it.
