I liked Reddit Gold when that's all there was. A super-upvote conveying "I'd pay money for this posting".
The weird tiers they added later weren't an improvement on that but fine I guess and the stupid icon thingies they have now? They're horrible.
So, I'd be in favour of something like the old Reddit Gold but I wonder how it could even work in the fediverse.
I think that's an absolutely valid concern.
In the fediverse, we have some tools against abuse of this though because every Gold application would be public just like upvotes are.
