I noticed on a comment that I got 3 "points". Is it like upvotes?

Yeah, and it's more useless than on reddit, because there's no cumulative amount of "karma". It's just an indicator of how good or bad your post/comment was.

The good side is that it won’t encourage karma farming

[–] Cat_Daddy@hexbear.net 3 points 5 days ago

Agreed. The karma system is stupid and pointless.
