I never gave out any of that shit. Gold didn't mean anything. It's just artificial scarcity.
Why would you add scarcity online where it doesn't exist? Only to make money. People will look back on all the stupid shit we put up with online just to make everything "free".
people can simply make a donation already, if they like. all of the extra work and resources required to run a coin and rewards system, track earning/spending and accounts, plus a secure payment system, etc… that would all cost a lot of time and resources. and that would require even more donations to pay for and maintain.
you’re right: it’s not useless, it’s worse than useless.
if you want to donate, just do that. if you want unconditional love, adopt a puppy.

If Lemmy had coins, you'd have an award right now.
thanks, but…. aren’t you glad it doesn’t have that useless crap?

Yes, of course. I simply wished to express my opinion of the comment in terms we are all familiar with here.
well, I appreciate that ❤️

They could even donate and post a screenshot of their receipt in the name of whatever user as a thank you to them.
that would be a really cool trend to start
well, it would be very geeky, but still cool
