Hi guys just wanted to know if Lemmy has any karma count for people in their profile like Reddit has? If so is it public and How can I access it? Edit: Thanks guys I'm so relieved that this kind of stuff is not prevalent here. I love the Fediverse ❤️

This is what my Mbin instance profile view shows me:

Reputation points: 4116 Moderated: 0

I'm under the impression the reputation points are either the combined number of upvotes or that minus downvotes, but I don't know. Also, this is an Mbin instance but it's fully federated with Lemmy instances so usually no one separates "Lemmy" and "Mbin" ...

IIRC from kbin -- and assuming mbin didn't change things -- boosts counted for two points while upvotes (favorites) are one point and downvotes (reduces) are one point. Boosts are basically retweets, IIRC, and wouldn't be coming from lemmy users -- just from Mastodon, mbin, and other tools that support it.

Edit: To clarify, I mean downvotes reduce by one point.
