I got a message saying I apparently have premium and/or coins, and to use them before they expire.

But, even before the Reddit plague I had no way of even knowing that, because I used old Reddit and RiF.

Anyway, my point is that this change only affects official Reddit app users, and new Reddit users.

So Reddit found a way to take stuff away from the users who weren't directly affected by the third-party app shutdowns.

It's a genius way to make sure everyone is pissed off all at once.
