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.

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.

No, god no.

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.

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.

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

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.

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

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.
