It's graphically very pretty, at least, and I'm gonna miss the place.

I mostly don't understand why they made so many different awards. I thought Gold was a cool way of a user supporting Reddit while also showing their gratitude toward another user. After all, users cared about karma even though it didn't really do anything so an award was just an extra "tip" of appreciation.
It definitely lost its luster to me though once they changed it to awards and it became messy.
For me the current awards system was the number one reason to switch to a 3rd party app. I despise the fact that people paid money for this stuff and i hated the visual clutter.
I LOVED Apollo for letting me turn off awards altogether.
