What are the bad patterns of Reddit to never repeat on Lemmy?
What are the bad patterns of Reddit to never repeat on Lemmy?
A few examples include s*x questions on askreddit, "this" comments, nolife powermods, jokes being more frequent than actual answers

I'd say people worrying about Karma.
this /s
Even the /s I wouldn't bring it here
I was going to post that you're lucky you included the /s, but I just realized we don't have karma so it doesn't matter anyways. Such a nice feeling...
Fuck that /s If you're unable to grasp context without it then just move on to a different discussion.
karma (or upvotes-downvotes aka simple karma) shouldn't be a reason to disallow someone from using a lemmy community
I don't know what form of karma Wander meant, but for me the "global karma" numbers are the worst part of reddit. People constantly posting stupid things or self-censoring to try to make number go up.
Requiring minimum positive karma is stupid when it can be gamed so easily.
Someone with very negative karma is likely a troll.
upvoted to give you more karma
What exactly was the karma problem? I never saw it being a huge issue
It becomes an issue if you imagine people on social media do what they do for karma in the same way people in real life do what they do for money.
In other words, if you have a deficient or extremely narrow theory of mind, you will think karna is the cause of everything
Is there even a total karma counter anywhere at all?
Not on Lemmy but there is on kbin (it's called "reputation", I think). I'm hoping it doesn't get implemented here, but I guess we can see if it negatively affects kbin content as we've got a direct comparison.
