I’d say people worrying about Karma.

Even the /s I wouldn’t bring it here
Or at least revert it to its original markdown format.

karma (or upvotes-downvotes aka simple karma) shouldn’t be a reason to disallow someone from using a lemmy community
I don’t know what form of karma Wander meant, but for me the “global karma” numbers are the worst part of reddit. People constantly posting stupid things or self-censoring to try to make number go up.
I never thought about that, but with your global karma comment I think community karma might not be a bad idea. You could see which communities a person has good standing with, which ones they barely visit, and which ones they might cause issues on. It could say a lot about how a user operates and their views are a very quick glance. I kinda like that idea.
Requiring minimum positive karma is stupid when it can be gamed so easily.
Someone with very negative karma is likely a troll.
This
upvoted to give you more karma
Is there even a total karma counter anywhere at all?
Not on Lemmy but there is on kbin (it’s called “reputation”, I think). I’m hoping it doesn’t get implemented here, but I guess we can see if it negatively affects kbin content as we’ve got a direct comparison.
What exactly was the karma problem? I never saw it being a huge issue
It becomes an issue if you imagine people on social media do what they do for karma in the same way people in real life do what they do for money.
In other words, if you have a deficient or extremely narrow theory of mind, you will think karna is the cause of everything
We literally can’t downvote on beehaw lol
