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 ❤️

I know some clients show that, but the culture here is generally quite against the concept. Tends to lead to people being scared of going against the majority and creates a hive mind mentality to keep karma high.

Hive mind mentality sums up Reddit culture pretty accurately. so happy to be here

Don't get me started on Karma farming bots. A Karma system does more harm than good.

"☝️🤓 you do not have enough karma to post in this community!" Well what the fuck community am I supposed to post in when all the ones I want to post in won't let me!?

Reminds me of this.

Cannot agree more. I say things all the time here that people hate and downvote me for but the numbers are even more useless here than on Reddit so it's difficult to care.

I think it's useful to quickly check if a user is trolling, but you can always just look at their recent activity.
