I mean, "karma" here is meaningless (not that on reddit it meant much) since your account doesnt show how much upvotes youve gotten making it virtually meaningless aside of ascending posts to top and hot.
I do enjoy seeing high numbers on other people's posts right now since it somewhat reflects how many users are interacting in some form in Lemmy
I will probably wait for it to have some good apps, I'm really enjoying connect for lemmy right now and I just hate having to use web browsers to access social media on my phone regardless of how good the site actually is on mobile.
