They said they are replacing it with something else. I believe more money will be directly involved.

    I think they're changing how awards work. A portion of the award price will go to the awardee.

    It's going to be a very cheap way for them to pay freelance writers / creators.

    In other words, imagine something like TiqTock with lower quality content.
