It would have to be something like a per-community karma score to ensure it can’t be used out of context and to reduce the benefits of gaming the number.

I could also see a use for per-instance karma which only counts upvotes from users on that instance.

For example if I make a mainstream post on the election at lemmy.world and all the users from Hexbear downvote it, that shouldn’t affect my rep with lemmy.world admins, but Hexbear admins would appreciate knowing their local users consider me unacceptably capitalist.
