am i the only one who thinks this is actually a good idea? this is essentially the perfect form of monetisation: you pay for something superficial which doesn’t provide you with any inherent advantage except for looking cool
Basically, and the target audience will pay because they want the prestige or they belong to a large organization or a government. Does seem like a reasonable way to monetize to me.
oh I was thinking about avatars. Point is they sell frivolous stuff that people on Reddit pay money for, while moaning that people in Twitter will now pay money for similar kinds of frivolous stuff. :)
