Firstly, they de-valued upvotes and the equality that every user's opinion had before they were introduced.
And secondly, they were so abundant that they didn't mean anything anyway.

Do you think you'd hate them less if they were all free like the reactions on discord (and so wouldn't set aside payers from free users)? I lowkey think it was Reddit trying to make me feel jealous of the people paying that made me hate them.

    yes, but also no, they were all sparkly and obnoxious and I didn't know what a single one of them meant. There's a standard set of emoji for a reason lol (even if it's been augmented by a bajillion custom emoji that 50% of popular servers implement at least 10-25% of).

    Has any discord server implemented any emoji for a single discord award? Genuine question cos like I said I don't recognize a single one so I wouldn't know if I came across one.
