I've been using Connect for Lemmy, and it lists all your points on your profile. I didn't even realize that wasn't included on the website until right now.

Connect for Lemmy is an android app. Based on Sync for Reddit which shutdown unfortunately. Both 3rd party apps for the websites.

Sync for Lemmy is on its way though, which is the original creator u/jdawson and should also have the karma system.

All these people talking about not having a karma system look a little foolish since I'm literally down voting them as I read it.

Did karma ever stop anyone from posting their racist, hateful shit on the other site?

Imagine being so addicted to social media you let a number change his you act. Absolutely sad.

I mean, upvotes are counted and tracked so how is that different than karma?

On reddit, if your karma is too low you're not allowed to participate in most communities.

I mean, it's a super low bar.

But isn't there a karma system? At least I'm seeing points on posts and comments and that's what karma is/was on Reddit right?

No idea why we'd want it...

Even on Reddit, it didn't do much.

The irony is that is seems like some parts of Lemmy has more of a hivemind than Reddit ever did. That is exasperated by the fact that there are so few of us here compared to Reddit that one or two votes weigh more than they would elsewhere.

Karma sucked ass on Reddit. Essentially people could ban you from participating because you pissed too many people off even though you didn't break any rules.

Karma count is an ass kissing metric, high karma shows that you kiss people's asses for upvotes, low or negative karma shows that people dislike what you say which is absolutely ok. People having different opinions vs going with the group is the difference between a healthy platform and an echo chamber.

By the way Trolls and malicious actors who that system is targeting should be dealt with directly. If someone's posting hateful transphobia instead of downvoting their acount they should just be BANNED from the community or the platform as a whole, keep bad people out of the community.

While I don't need a Karma System I would like to have some statistics to brag about or at least to look at.

Then it already failed it's purpose as people seem to be more offended by anything than when they were on Reddit.
