Reddit is going to sunset its current coins and awards systems, meaning you won’t be able to buy Reddit Gold for posts you like. However, it is working on a new system for awards.

idk how else to express my appreciation for this except to tell you that I gazed upon it with love and admiration for a good minute, long enough that I made my own self uncomfortable with how happy this goofy picture made me. It feels like a true representation of the casual, homemade, “let’s just try it!” vibe of lemmy. This is beautiful, thank you.
Well said.
Not to take away from this beautiful piece of art, but it’s a take on “reddit silver”, an equally silly pic of a MSPaint coin that’s used on reddit as a tongue-in-cheek (and free) alternative for reddit gold awards.
Beyond the simple reason “don’t have money for that right now”, it became especially popular since lots of people wanted to show appreciation for posts without supporting reddit’s model.
I’m okay with Alemmynum, I’m pretty low cost.
That would be Alemmynium in British English
This is specially funny given that aluminium used to be damn expensive in the 19th century. It was mostly obtained by reacting aluminium chloride with alkaline metals back then.
In other words: we’re back to the roots! Who cares if gold this, gold that, alemmynium is more precious and useful!
Dayumn gotta get me some Lemmy plat to be a big baller.
“Thank you kind stranger!”
