The company announced its fourth series of Collectible Avatars on Wednesday. Reddit is putting some limits on who can buy them for the first day of launch as part of an “initial access” period.
Reddit first released Collectible Avatars last year, and they could be a way for Reddit to bring in some money as it tries to make a profit.
The first post is focused on Twitch’s efforts to keep its younger users safe.

According to Politico:
In its probe, the FTC has interviewed dozens of witnesses both inside and outside Amazon, including CEO Andy Jassy and former CEO and founder Jeff Bezos, some of the people said. The FTC has collected millions of documents from Amazon and third parties over the last three years to build its case.
Politico reports that the lawsuit could hit as soon as August. The Wall Street Journal reported in February that the agency was looking into a potential lawsuit against the company.
During Alphabet’s Q2 earnings call, Pichai said that the AI-generated search results experiment now generates AI snapshots in half the time since launch. (Maybe I should give it another shot.)
The company is also “testing and evolving” ad placements and formats in the new tool. Here’s some ways they looked as of May.
In a later part of the call, Pichai reiterated his confidence in SGE. “Over time, this will just be how search works.”
The collective project is ending soon, and users can only write in white, but they’re working on one last piece of protest art to send r/Place off. (Smaller versions of the message have been dropped in throughout the multi-day event.)
We’ve captured the final moments of r/Place in the gallery below.
