I never got the hate over this. I agree that “pay this company $3 because some guy made a funny joke” doesn’t make a ton of sense, but the 2(?) times someone got me gold, I said thank you… just feels like acknowledging a compliment.
Yup. I was the same way. I also wanted to see what the lounge was all about, until the first time I got gold and saw it was just a circle jerk about… Getting gold. Dunno what I expected.

A long, long time ago, I made an exception on my Adblocker for Reddit, since their ads were specifically unobtrusive and I liked the site a lot.
