I don’t think so. I kind of like not having it. It’s useless and just encourages karma farming with low reposts

Upvoted because the question is good and well thought of.

No, we don't.

No.

No. What good has it ever done in n Reddit? Just encourages karma farmers.

No, god no.

Technically it kinda does, but it's apparently not accessible unless you're an admin or using kbin.

That said, karma isn't something that should be prominently featured or featured at all IMO.

Well, the Voyager app shows a comment score and a post score, I like to have just that. The karma system was flawed because the accounts with the most karma where mostly repost bots. Karma restrictions didn't do anything because of that.

I like that you can see both upvotes and downvotes. I always deleted anything on Reddit that went below one karma here I don’t have that urge as I feel at least one person agrees and I feel like I can be my true self instead of always conforming to the sub.

Some apps show it but tbh I think it’s a good thing Lemmy generally doesn’t

I was on Reddit since just before the Digg migration and I still don't know what karma even is not give two shits about it.

Please fucking no. Karma is responsible for all that is bad on Reddit. Lemmy, so far, seems to be avoiding the worst of that.

For the love of the platform, no.

Universal karma wouldnt work for gate keeping or weighting in a federation anyway. Since the internal activity of each server is opaque to the others, theres no practical way to verify that karma reported by a different server is genuine and not internal bot activity or just manually edited by the server owner.

No. This leads to the commercialization/capitalization of accounts and "karma farming" in general. Increases numbers of bots, decreases content quality. It will become yet another Reddit. If Lemmy implements that I will be out of here.

Hope you devs can see the issues with it @nutomic@lemmy.ml and not become liberals. Stop the gamification!

Why is this 8 month post suddenly getting so many comments?

I suppose this could be implemented as a config options, so instance admins could choose to enable or disable it. Of course someone would have to write the code for it, contributions welcome :)

It sort of had. Boost for Lemmy used to calculate and list it untill recently. Not only for yourself, but for others as well. And deleting comments didn't regain/lose any karma. It stopped doing that though.
