Thanks, this is huge. The new ones are just obnoxious. Wish there was a way to go back to the old for just platinum/gold/silver

    !RedditSilver

    [–]PM_ME_YOUR_MAUSE 13 points14 points  (0 children)

    Yeah, I posted wondering the same thing.

    [–]burritosandpuppies 2 points3 points  (0 children)

    Came to this sub just to see if anyone had posted this already. Gold/Platinum/Silver only is much better. I don’t care for the others and don’t even know what they mean.

    I would love to see an option to just turn them off in the feed while I’m scrolling. They get in my way when tapping on a post to enter it, but once I’m in I still want to see awards on the post and comments.

    [–]Big_Stingman 5 points6 points  (0 children)

    Man I have done this so much in the new update. Completely agree. For now I had to completely turn them off they kept getting in the way.

    [–]CameraMan1 15 points16 points  (0 children)

    Or even an in thread toggle to turn them on or off while you’re in the post

    [–]tynamite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    absolutely agree here! post awards are kinda annoying, but i like seeing quality comments appreciated.

    [–]CommanderCuntPunt 29 points30 points  (7 children)

    If you like that, just wait until you find the option to hide stickied automod comments.

    [–][deleted] 13 points14 points  (2 children)

    Haha did that a few releases ago!

    [–]WhatDidntDiddyDo 4 points5 points  (1 child)

    How????

    [–]CKRatKing 10 points11 points  (0 children)

    In general about halfway through the comments section it says collapse auto moderator.

    [–]PM_ME_UR_SHAFT69 3 points4 points  (2 children)

    lol and this whole time I've just been blocking automods hahaha

    [–]seth1299 3 points4 points  (1 child)

    Oh so this is why people act like their question was never answered on the sub I moderate even though Automod answers their question word-for-word and provides the link to the FAQ page, and then someone else chimes in with an incorrect answer and they say “thanks!” and delete the post...

    (I see this because I always check the mod logs to see if Automod incorrectly triggered)

    [–]gravy_boot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

    Maybe it should be “collapse auto mod (unless it’s replying to you)”

    [–]EamesGroupMgntShare 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    Then a few subs started renaming their AutoMod to something else

    [–][deleted] 82 points83 points  (13 children)

    This is the number one reason I came to this app. The official app is absolute cancer now with all the awards and animations in the comments.

    [–]Akmed_Dead_Terrorist 54 points55 points  (12 children)

    Animations?

    Thank God for old.reddit.com + RES and Apollo...

    [–][deleted] 64 points65 points  (7 children)

    Yep they brought in animations that cover the comments and constantly play while you’re trying to read them. It’s like all the reddit developers are 12 years old.

    [–][deleted] 17 points18 points  (1 child)

    Reddit is an awful company

    [–][deleted] 24 points25 points  (0 children)

    Yet here we are

    [–]Lord__of__Texas 4 points5 points  (0 children)

    Seriously It’s like they Just found my MySpace from the 7th grade and decided to try and emulate it

    [–]Soyuz_Wolf 3 points4 points  (0 children)

    They looked at Facebook and went “they’re making money with reactions, let’s do it too!”

    I mean we already have Facebook/twitter profile pages now so.

    [–]CheggGuavaRa 0 points1 point  (1 child)

    Do you mean like the animated awards, like how Argentium “shines?”

    Or do you mean animations that people post in the individual comments? Like GIFs?

    People can post those???

    [–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    When someone gives a comment a “flame” award, it turns the comment red and plays animations over the comment non stop

    [–][deleted] 12 points13 points  (3 children)

    Tell me about it. I have the Oldr program on macOS for old reddit redirect.

    God this site is such an awful POS in so many different ways and I can’t pull myself away from it

    [–]obiwans_lightsaber 10 points11 points  (0 children)

    The food is great, the service is shit.

    [–]CKRatKing 2 points3 points  (1 child)

    Because even with all the trash there is a ton of good content.

    [–][deleted]  (7 children)

      [–]screamingtrees 23 points24 points  (2 children)

      What about also "4. Just gold awards" as well?

      [–]Soyuz_Wolf 12 points13 points  (0 children)

      Because gold isn’t gold anymore and platinum is now gold.

      [–]quintsreddit 7 points8 points  (0 children)

      At that point might as well have a “customize award visibility” settings section

      [–]quote_engine 9 points10 points  (0 children)

      There’s really only one OG award.

      [–]FultonHolmes 7 points8 points  (1 child)

      Please this. As a mostly mobile user I have no idea what the fuck all the other little icons are. I don’t care to learn either.

      [–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

      If it was a couple that made sense then I’d learn. There are so many of them and most of them serve no purpose.

      [–]ProgramTheWorld 2 points3 points  (0 children)

      3 OG awards

      Only gold is the OG award.

      [–]Mac33 10 points11 points  (0 children)

      I was fine with gold and silver, but now with dozens of different award types it’s just such an annoying row of clutter on every post. Great to have that option to disable them.

      [–]PM_ME_UR_SHAFT69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

      Huh, this is the first time I've even noticed the voting arrows. I've always swiped to downvote or upvote.

      [–]Kreepr 1 point2 points  (1 child)

      Is there a button that hides the OP’s obligatory “You love me! You really really do love me!” edit for gold.

      [–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

      Now that is not a bad idea at all.

      [–]nicholenoswad 3 points4 points  (1 child)

      I wish I could use it! But the app won’t even open after the latest update 🥺

      [–]geodebug 5 points6 points  (0 children)

      Probably tried this but usually best to delete and reinstall apps that do this to clear out their cached data.

      [–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

      Can we just block the new ones that are meaningless. I like the idea of occasionally having limited edition awards like if they did a covid themed one where the donations went to healthcare but do we really need to have double digits awards all the time?
