I felt the move of making reddit silver a real award was a big shift. Newer users don't even get why reddit silver was a thing.
I do like the idea of optional visibility - awards certain;y don't have to be bloat/bad.
I remember Reddit Gold being controversial when it was new.
Reddit Silver being an award just completely stole all the magic out of it. It was a cute little memey way to show support and then it got turned into a way to put more money in Reddit's pocket :c
