It started with introducing Reddit Silver, then Platinum, then just a few limited time icons, then permanent ones, then animated ones.
Then they started giving them to people for free to give to others to cultivate a culture of buying awards.
Now we're here.
Reddit Silver was originated as a joke to parody Reddit Gold.
Capitalism ruins everything. But it especially ruins comedy.
The worst part is it worked perfectly to slip the userbase into thinking that the microtransactions were actually a fun in-joke and that's all.
Once people were used to gifting Reddit Silver, they could be introduced to Reddit Platinum without any of the expected backlash you'd think reddit users would have to their site doing exactly what they hate EA doing
