How about 34 upvotes instead?... No? Reddit gold?

[–] orangeNgreen@lemmy.world 23 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Best I can do is a Wholesome Seal.

[–] Ghostalmedia@lemmy.world 13 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Best I can do is a hugs emoji that I got for free.

[–] RamblingPanda@lemmynsfw.com 8 points 6 months ago

You mean the passive aggressive titty grab-emoji? 🤗

[–] Reverendender@sh.itjust.works 8 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I will give you three 🥭🥭🥭

[–] exanime@lemmy.today 4 points 6 months ago

Are those at least Meyer lemons? If so, you are losing on the trade hehehe

Didn't they take those away?

[–] TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world 12 points 6 months ago (2 children)

Bro silver started out as a joke about handing out an award in thread as a jpg.

The fact that the turned it into whatever it became is kinda disgusting.

But if you want to buy it from me I'll sell it to you.

[–] AbidanYre@lemmy.world 5 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) (1 children)

I don't know man, I never paid much attention to the gold/awards/other crap real or (apparently) otherwise.

[–] TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago

Yeah sure. The whole concept stemmed off pretty much what I did here.

I mean its kind of wild to think back and realize that basically reddit was user supported and funded, and now its just a pure exploitation machine, but there it is.

I thought the actual 'awards' and guilding shit was pretty cringe.

[–] BeigeAgenda@lemmy.ca 2 points 6 months ago

Do you accept NFT's?

[–] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 4 points 6 months ago

If you framed that ... you'd probably get a better deal than investing in Reddit

[–] Ashyr@sh.itjust.works 54 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I hope this number plummets. It would just be fun, satisfying, and vindicating.

[–] Boozilla@lemmy.world 27 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I do, too. Spez has failed upwards for long enough. The universe's RNG is overdue for rolling low on this POS.

[–] APassenger@lemmy.world 8 points 6 months ago

He got paid. He just wants more paid.

[–] OhmsLawn@lemmy.world 17 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I'll buy a hundred shares when in hits $4.20 and immediately put a limit order in for $69. Because that's exactly how it'll go.

[–] BeigeAgenda@lemmy.ca 3 points 6 months ago

You may have to sell earlier, could be it only tops at $13.37

[–] echo64@lemmy.world 16 points 6 months ago

We all hope this does poorly, but reddit has an ai training model goldmine it's sitting on, and investment opportunities for people who want in on ai are confusing.

It's really all that it has, but it's probably gonna do well for as long as they keep the ai bots off reddit, which poisons that well.

[–] EvilLootbox@lemmy.world 15 points 6 months ago

The shares are expected to begin trading on the New York Stock Exchange on March 21, 2024, under the ticker symbol “RDDT.” The offering is expected to close on March 25, 2024, subject to customary closing conditions.

I might have to watch some CNBC tomorrow could be good for some laughs. Hope it tanks

[–] DogPeePoo@lemm.ee 13 points 6 months ago

$34 ?????!!! 😄😂👌📉💥🔥

[–] circuitfarmer@lemmy.sdf.org 10 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Someone have a banana for scale so I know how much that is?

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 3 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) (1 children)

Assuming a banana is $10, that's *650,000,000 bananas.

Edit: misread it as million. fixed.

[–] sudneo@lemm.ee 3 points 6 months ago (1 children)

You forgot 3 zeros, Lucille

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 2 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

Oh it said billion not million. 🤦‍♂️

[–] slurpeesoforion@startrek.website 9 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Siri, how do i short reddit?

[–] Sorse@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 6 months ago

To close an app, swipe up from the bottom to the middle of the screen and hold until you see the App Switcher. Then, swipe up on the apps you want to close.

That’s genuinely what Siri told me lol

[–] jordanlund@lemmy.world 1 points 6 months ago

Can confirm, I got an offer letter. Originally they were saying the range would be $31 to $34, but it didn't surprise me it dropped at $34.
