    Are people really upset about it? To me it was always pointless, and the few times I got gold and was allowed to peek into r/lounge it was just full of the most insufferable users (just people that thought they were special because they got gold).

      I think the point is more that it’s something people paid real money for just to have them rip it away with basically no notice and no replacement.

      The benefits of receiving it were meh. But it was a way to show recognition for people and supporting the site. One of the few ways they would even receive revenue, for little to no effort. I don’t know why they didn’t just lean into it harder.
