I am used to the Reddit model in which you need karma to pretty much do anything. Is that the case here? Does anything happen if you end up with just negative points?

I don't know about the sorting (I think it's just based on engagement), but downvotes have no effect on your account

I think Top X posts are done by score, and Hot takes both score and comments into account.

Idk about the negative points question, but karma in general doesn't exist here. Your comments and posts get quality scores determined by the votes, but that is mostly detached from your account.

Screw the internet points. Even when I was using Reddit, I use Ublock Origin to block the karma point next to username top right, no point, no distraction.

You can disable points in your account settings as well.

How? Can you please show me?

[–] CannotSleep420@lemmygrad.ml 10 points 2 years ago (1 children)

There is a checkbox for it (Show Scores) in the web UI. I don't know how to do it in other frontends.
