Free awards are the ones ones spammed on random posts so if awards are added, they should be paid only.


The hard truth is that long term, we likely need another way besides donations to keep the ecosystem alive.


Letting users decide where the money goes to is much better yeah.
I think they should be able to set percentages. See here: https://lemmy.world/comment/1068820


Honestly I think awards are a decent way of determining the quality of a post. If a Reddit post has a lot of awards it’s a sign that it is especially helpful/interesting. I know there are exceptions and sometimes the flood of awards at the top of the post is annoying, but often it works for determining the quality.
So people will aim to make posts of similar quality to get awards as well.
Karma on the other hand is too easy to get so its leads to shitty reposts to get a lot of likes. But the people don’t give awards to reposts that often.


I agree with @tigr@lemmy.world : Giving the user the power to decide where the money goes to is the best option. This eliminates the need for a centralised account with a system to spread the money, which would definitely lead to a lot of arguments.
The user could select something like 20% lemmy devs, 30% instance of community, 50% instance their created the account on. This way the user can decide who gets their “donation”
They probably removed gallery since fossify galery is on fdroid now
