I just install Reddit official app to see watch they offer. And holy cow. They are selling NFT-like stuff.

Instead make a better app, they give use this.

    I never knew about this and, as others said, they may have been doing this for a while, but I’d say OP still has a point when they said:

    This is the sort of thing they work on instead of their shit app. They’ve had years to improve that app. Longer than NFTs.

      So many companies do this. Attempting to get quick sales boosts quarter by quarter while avoiding doing anything sustainable because it doesn’t generate instant profit. It’s one of the worst effects of the investor-first way of doing business

      they did this already for a longer while, yes. that’s why most people stayed away from the offical “app”
