What happened with Reddit
Discussion
😉🤔
The MBAs got in
Imploded into corpo MTXes, ads, and more.
Moons got launched on ETH (used for tipping on Reddit)
Moons launched on Kraken
Redditors and traders got rugged
People frustrated and sad
They are coming.. thanks to Derek's hard work
Power tripping money grabbing weaklings. Pathetic.
The same thing that happened to Twitter
They had a token called $beans they were paying people in or something, and then everyone got rugged. Now they're pissed, understandably.
rekt
Reddit discontinued their moon token … rugpulled their own users … 🫠
So you remember when all these random influencers were making a token and then they just dipped? Reddit did that.
What HASN'T happened with Reddit?

It sucks
Ross made them pivot to nostr
sad story . they had the genius idea to rename "nft" to "collectible" and it worked like crazy .
People there are really convinced avatars for profile is not the same as an nft !
The market dirves again and with the bear, the marketting team has cut it .
sad
nostr:npub18ams6ewn5aj2n3wt2qawzglx9mr4nzksxhvrdc4gzrecw7n5tvjqctp424 is doing a great job of bringing people to Nostr from reddit!

nostr:npub18ams6ewn5aj2n3wt2qawzglx9mr4nzksxhvrdc4gzrecw7n5tvjqctp424 did a lot of great jobs as well as most of us did. Some small, some big. Most great. All important.
Normal here.
people still use reddit?
You’re surprised as much as I am. If people actually knew how Reddit worked they might think otherwise.

backup now - just replied to someone /r/nostr/ doubting decentralization of nostr
Like Adam, they couldn’t avoid eating from the print-your-own-money tree.
Sploded
Overrun with progressives like you.
massive hub of echo chambers, great idea bad execution

Thanks! 🤙🏻💜🫂
Hey Jack! Reddit rugged their Moons token used by the /r/Cryptocurrency subreddit. Moons were essentially community points on Ethereum. They gained traction this past year and even got listed on Kraken. Lots of people started to buy them, trade them, horde them, etc. Reddit announced recently that they were sunsetting the program and all of the whales dumped their bags. Lots of people feel betrayed.
So, I figured that since these users appreciated creating content and getting paid for it, why not tell them about Nostr, highlight Zaps, and how we're building a value for value decentralized economy here.
I made a post on Reddit in their cryptocurrency subreddit. It's currently at 50K views and 400 comments. It's doing really well. I've been answering questions all afternoon and on-boarding people to Nostr. 🤙🏻💜🫂
Pura vida.
Thank you for this important staying in the loop work, nostr:npub18ams6ewn5aj2n3wt2qawzglx9mr4nzksxhvrdc4gzrecw7n5tvjqctp424. PV 🫂
you're welcome. im trying! PV!
You are a hero for #reddit users
Except those few people that think I'm trying to sell them the Zap token 😂😂
💜👏🎯
Thanks Derek!
There are som reddit lookalike nostr clients aren't there? I think one of those would be great to recommend together with a twitter like cluent.
Can you link to the post?
i cashed out all my reddit points a week in advance due to having insider connections. that's life, kid

Where do we start? What happened to reddit, indeed.
Hehe 😇
They issued unregistered securities to pay their mods and users and then realised that was a really bad idea so dropped the project. BUT they told their mods an hour before the users so the mods dumped tens of thousands of dollars worth of the "tokens". Now everyone is pissed.
Oof
reddit? never heard of it
It is not as informative as Twitter
It’s hard to use now
Reddit got wrecked by itself. Centralized powers destroyed what RCP's had in motion which means decentralized platform become in demand.
Echo chamber took over and corporate policies allowed it to drown out dissent.
They killed Schwartz and then used pizzagate and 2016 election to justify quarantining communities of free thought. Free thinkers stopped posting, then state funded propaganda farms filled the gaps with fake narratives. It is now a complete echo chamber of GPT powered NPC thinking

Activist investors.
reddit started going down hill after that guy killed himself facing life in prison for stealing some pdfs behind a paywall.
Died 10 yrs ago?
We've got Lemmy now.
