11 months agojust one special award award that you can grant once per day
Sounds good at first, but sooner or later it would result in users using alts to highlight their own comments. Even if it was granted only once a month or less.
Sure, bumping your comments is already possible with alts, but it’s not so effective and distracting like an award would be.
With Reddit Gold, you at least had to decide if you really wanted to spend your real money on it.
I like the concept of users saying “hey that comment helped/entertainment me a lot and really deserves a special spotlight”, but it shouldn’t be too easy to abuse.
Maybe Lemmy Gold Spotlight should be available to give away once you’ve made a donation. Maybe there would be other problems with that.
Please add a logging functionality, so that even if something like that would happen in the future because of some special case bug, it would still be possible to figure out which subscriptions were removed.
