View submission: Testing a new concept with select subreddit partners

Is this the system that /r/FortNiteBR has?

I know this is early, but my advice: If this ever goes global across Reddit, handle these new features like Plex does. For these new features released for only patrons (if you need the income); at a later date roll out said features to all users once you have developed other new features for patrons.

Because IMO, placing features behind a paywall forever is very off-putting.

Yeah wtf why does r/FortniteBR get all the cool new features lol, first Vault and now this Subscriber thing with badges and name colors.

Edit: Also, badges and name colors are fully supported on old reddit so their subscriber system actually really does feel like pay-walling existing features.

r/fortnitebr offers subscriptions to the subreddit where subscribers unlock features like badges and emojis for personal use. The main difference with power-ups is that power-ups unlock features that are subreddit-wide.
