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?
I can definitely live without it, bit I do miss it a lot.
I liked my magic internet points number, man.
This. We can meme on them all day long, and we know they’re worthless, but they feel nice. Oldest account had 40k+ because of a sick quilt my grandmother made.
