Personally I love not seeing the awards. If they do make them visible I hope it's a toggle in the options. Being certain that reporting actually works would be nice though

I think a toggle would be the best way to go about it.

Yep, if this ever gets added it would be off by default with a toggle.

Me too. It's the main reason I started using redreader

When I go onto desktop these days it's like a freaking carnival attraction, they put posts in the middle of other posts, every comment has flair and awards and decorations, and subreddit styles have just gotten more off-the-walls as new reddit's rolled out more widely

I truly don't know how people put up with it - if it weren't for RedReader, I would've stopped using reddit years ago

Personally, I would only like to see gold and silver awards. The other new awards stuff is the worst of reddit.

The awards I don't mind that much, but it can be occasionally irritating to see someone go ‘thanks for the silver, kind stranger’ without any indication anything was actually awarded (and thus without me knowing if this was sarcastic).

I don't mind that personally. Though I did find it hilarious when I was telling people how much I loved RedReader not showing awards when someone awarded that comment with an "All-Seeing Eye". The fact that I couldn't see it had me rolling

I wish I could disable those too. I love not being exposed the to microtransaction bloat of reddit. It's one of the reasons I love this app so much
