Honestly makes me a tiny bit sad I deleted my account with a few post rewards, but I see it for what it is. An incentive to keep users on a platform that treats them poorly. You wouldn't stay with an abusive partner just because they keet giving you nice stuff. They're still an abusive partner at the end of the day.

Edit: spelling( I'm on a phone)
