I recently found this Firefox extension that looks safe (I checked some network activity but DOUBLE CHECK) and brings back Karma on Lemmy!

INB4: if you don't like karma on lemmy, you are in good company. There is no need to hate the ones that do like them.

Of course being unofficial it's just a cosmetic feature, so it hopefully can be a funny thing without going to be toxic like on Reddit.

How much karma do u have?

if you want to view exposed 'karma', you'll nee to pick a different product than lemmy. id suggest kbin/mbin.

the lemmy devs are hard set against it.

Noted. It was just a funny innocent thing tbh but I see, is a spicy topic in the lemmy community

they really want to be this alternative/off-ramp to reddit but dont really want to provide the features that draw users to reddit. i get it, some of those features are abused to some extent.

i feel this feature should be instance-specific. the developers shouldnt make that call. the instance admin should be able to enable what the community wants. if lemmy.world hates karma, groovy, but let lemmy.ca show it if they want.

totally agree on that. If we want to keep being a healthy alternative to reddit, freedom is the minimum i expect
