I’m not sure if this is new, but when I clicked on the /r/pics protest post link from the frontpage here, I was redirected to this: https://old.reddit.com/premium

I’m not sure if this is well-known or not that they’re pushing it now, but it’s the first time I’ve seen it, especially on old.reddit.

    this just reminded me you could also send a post card to get a month of reddit gold too
    I think I got gilded twice.
    I barely remember that exclusive sub.

      Someone gilded one or two of my comments (shitposts), and I felt so grateful to them and so proud of myself that someone thought it was worth spending money to reward a dumb joke I’d made. That stuff makes an impression. But I couldn’t tell you the last time I saw a gilded post because it literally doesn’t mean anything now
