Should Lemmy have Karma?
Another Reddit refugee here,
I think we're all familiar with the Karma system on Reddit. Do you think Lemmy should have something similar? Because I can see cases for and against it.
For: a way to tracking quality contributions by a user, quantifying reputation. Useful to keep new accounts from spamming communities.
Against: Often not a useful metric, can be botted or otherwise unearned (see u/spez), maybe we should have something else?
What do you all think?
You're viewing a single thread.
We don't need people Karma Whoring.
Karma is a great indicator of the popularity of what you're posting to help you post more excepted things. There's no reason for us to bring the reddit pissing contest here.
Unrelated, why does your comment say "Karma removed"? Let's try - Karma removed
Oh damn, is this some built in censorship? If so, that's really strange... Or instance related?
Not sure, I can see my own karma on the message, maybe .world isn't sharing Karma with .ml
