As soon as Reddit received foreign investment, I saw changes that reminds me of Chinas Social Credit System...new awards to buy, free karma for giving awards, the more you interact the more you are rewarded. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_Credit_System

Dude you're off your rocker. They've been making these shitty changes far before a Tencent investment.

They're just trying to make it like other social media sites. Because profit.
