I forgot Awards existed (poptalk.scrubbles.tech)

I just got this email from Reddit, and I just realized it's been a year now since I swapped over here, and I haven't thought about awards once. I always thought they were gimmicky and a way for people to throw away money. It's just really nice not worrying about them.

(I also have participated more in BuyMeACoffee and Patreon over here now, and I think my money is better spent that way)

Also, what is with that exponential scale, so screw you if you're a big time user apparently? And the expiration? The whole thing has corpo stink on it

If you haven't deleted your account, you can go to the Reddit app, search, "youruser -Deleted", click on Messages, and it will show you all the lingering ones.

I had to run the shredder script with a couple GDPR exports until it stuck.

Just did this morning.

Last year I edited all the ones the API would let me access and they stayed edited. Just forgot to delete the account after the dust settled. Finally got around to it this morning lol.
