Can’t have my tasty coffee becoming bitter due to the massive Reddit logo contaminating the drink, you know.
Reddit mods get a badge, a coffee mug and a blanket. The blanket is now getting destroyed by my cats.
I wonder where I can get a Lemmy mug made…
So I’m in favor of spurring conversation about how mods are unpaid workers, and this is presented to you instead of pay. Group up with other mods for a class action lawsuit and use that picture as a group chat icon.
Keep it, store it somewhere. It is a good memory to what it ones was.
sell it in 20 years for a tidy sum as a “collectible”
Get a red paint marker and put the universal “no” sign on it??
Honestly, save it. It’s a nice reminder of a time that was. That time is no more, but times change. Treasure the time that used to be.
Use it as your poop mug. That’s a thing, right?
Guys?
Of course! Where else would someone keep their poop knife?
2 guys 1 mug?
…and mail it back once it’s full.
Plant a cactus in it and keep it on your desk, remembering better times
Lol I can see there thought process at play.
_Give them a coffee mug as a sign of thanks and maybe they’ll put coffee in it and work even harder for us_Seems like a narcissistic (and incredibly cheap) gesture.
All that work and dedication for some trinkets? If anything, this has been a lesson not to perform unpaid labor for privately owned companies. Let the mug be a reminder to never do that again.
Ironically most people would of been fine doing the unpaid mod labor if reddit did not try to take tools way from them. All spez had to do was not do anything to screw over the unpaid mods but he failed.
Because it was never for the “privately owned company” that they were doing the work, it was for the communities. Reddit was just a site where people could go to talk about their favorite subjects or discuss news posted by the users, reddit the company never did anything to improve the site and often made it worse instead.
If reddit is going to make claim that the communities aren’t community-run and are instead owned and regulated by reddit, then mods deserve actual wages and employee status.
Put it on a shelf next to your webvan and kosmo.com stickers
woah when did you get your mug??
Maybe add a toilet flushing u/spez and u/ModCodeofConduct down the drain
Shoot it with some 00 buckshot, upload the slow-mo video.
fill it with coffee-stained gelatin and shoot it with a bear slug.
I like the way you think.
