I'm not sure AI killed petitioning system, and gladly Mastodon's and fork-of are working as intended.



but is that the same system as twitch viewing points? (watching a stream gives you points you can spend on the stream you're watching, you cannot keep those on someone else's stream, and they're perishable and you get like extra chat commands like highlighting your message, display special emotes and such), some "silly gamification" to create engagement during the stream.



or is that a "gamified client for mastodon" because if you log on using your AP-based account, and give points-per-x and x being toot/like/retoot (mastodon functions) that might end like a casino a bit or a silent grind to get everything available for sake of collection and achivements or just stacking points.



i think i remember some people talking about doing the same when NFTs were popular, like engagement is giving crypto points and with those crypto points you could buy NFTs and access new stuff on the website. on paper its grinding casino 101



But i'm still curious about it.
