This is surprisingly sick funk for the end of my day.

Precisely. I just saw that you have to be on .new or the official app to participate. Oh well…

Doing it right now is absolutely tone-deaf.

Its mandated fun. “Users, you have been agitated in the last weeks. We hereby strongly suggest you participate in this thing we have chosen in order for you to have fun again.”

Reddit becomes stale as it goes through the motions when trying to hand out the member berries.

Either they are dumb or I am.

Though we’d love to reveal more to you all now, we’re in the process of early testing and feedback, so aren’t ready to share official details just yet.

So they are killing cashflow at this crucial point and any possible replacement is “in the process of early testing and feedback”? WTF? Am I missing something?
